The creek
















Her is the creek in flood and as it is today it was nice to see water in it as it has been many years since this has happened and it was great to see.Today I had to go and get my back put back as yesterday I laid a new floor in our kitchen as the old one had a bit of dry rot and had to be replaced so it took a full day and now we have to wait for new lino to be laid on Tuesday but it will look great once it is complete and the place looks so bright with all new lights and fresh paint so far we have done up the bathroom and the kitchen and the kitchenette its been a lot of hard work but well worth it.

Bit Slack

Hi I have been a bit slack as we have been very busy painting , plumbing , electrical work and pulling up old lino and a new one will be laid on Friday then once a week I visit the hospital to have chemo so time just fly's so quick and as the weather here is still cold I manage to split a bit of wood to burn in our fire.And with all the rain the creek came up and it looked like we had a lake out the back but it did look great,oh yes I am still doing the Build a Webb page course for three hours each week but as its school holiday here in Victoria I have two weeks break.

Still on the Roof

Well we thought we had fixed the leak and had to wait for it to rain but unfortunately
we found it still leaked when the rain came down again so today I pulled of some more sheets to try and find it still wont know until it rains again.In the meantime we are still painting this will take some time as we have to move furniture around and on Friday went down to Melbourne and bought a new vanity unit $200 cheaper than i could buy it up here so now I will have to install it.

Dont know where the time goes

Very busy painting and just replaced the inside of the kitchen roof only to find it leaked so I had to wait for the rain and wind to stop before I could go onto the roof to make a few repairs ,still not sure yet if that fixed it otherwise I will have to take some sheets of and find a trail to where it is from.
Every Wednesday is taken up by doing a coarse on how to build a webb site and boy do I have to use the old grey matter but I enjoy it and I find it interesting.

Hard Weekend

Boy what tired muscles we both have as we have been having a big clean up and many trips 22 klm into Ararat with the trailer full I did not realise that over the years the build up that had to be cleaned out I could not believe the amount of steal that I had built up you never know it might be handy and burnt a lot of rubbish in the hole down the back its very useful. Glenda now wants to start inside so it will be more trips to the tip and lots more sore body.

Escaped from Hospital

Hi I escaped out of hospital on Thursday as it was crazy sitting around waiting to be sick so I spoke to the doctor and he agreed to let me loose as long as I came back in each day to get a new Chemo bottle and this I have done and the last bottle was today so they take it off me tomorrow and then three weeks off with no more Chemo until the three weeks end and then one hour each week for twenty weeks.
