Great post! You should work for the Australian tourist board - you sold me! Mind you, I think I would go in an instant anyway. It's the wide open spaces and the weather that I hanker after more than anything. It does indeed sound like your life is near perfect. I mean, how many people can claim they feel "utterly serene"? I'm so pleased that your life is coming together so well for you and your family. Maureens last blog post..Did President Obama bow to King Abdullah? And does it matter if he did?

It's the same exact thing that's keeping me from writing a similar post. You are getting closer to where you want to be. I don't care if I get where I want to be, I just want to get a bit closer too. And I understand your feeling about the suburbs. The last thing I want is an American lifestyle, in Spain. If I wanted that, i would be there. bluestreaks last blog post..Half-assery/sorry Rasslery and an update on the job front

Sounds like a great move! And I'm really impressed that you can manage such a nice post so soon after moving! Jill/Twipply Skwoods last blog post..Dear Abby With a Belly Button Ring

Is it really so wonderful? Remember I live in Wisconsin and if you've seen Dogma you know what that means. heathers last blog post..For Pity's Sake

FF – What do you do with the lemons. And of course there’s a spare room, particularly for you. You guys should come over and maybe your girl and Zach will fall in love and then we can make them think that it wasn’t arranged.

Brittany – It would be a good choice. The Columbia – Australia route is a great one.

Flutter – Did they run it in the States as well?

Headbang – I don’t know if the Happy Valley house was a housing trust one or not. My parents would have loved Happy Valley – that’s what they were looking for when we were growing up. One of the things that I didn’t like about Happy Valley was that it reminded me of my childhood suburb.

I consider myself a first generation immigrant!

Theresa – Not rubbing, just reveling!

Jams – Only some of the sheep are venomous. Actually, you kind of get past the whole lethal fauna thing pretty quickly. I have yet to see a snake.

FGIS – You know the secret.

Angel – Come on down. You can stay in our spare room.

Joe – Y’all could stay in the spare room as well. Tyler can learn all sorts of bad habits from Zach.

TUB – The lack of internet access is getting a bit old, but hopefully we’ll get it resolved here pretty soon.

Rol – SOmetimes I miss the British rain.

Nichole – I know where you are and it’s where I just came from – hence my feeling of absolute elation!

SIS – Thanks.

Jacob – I’ve not been to NZ, but I hear that it’s fantastic. For the time being, the dry and sunny is great. Having lived in soggy places for most of my life, it’s a nice change. I think the problem with New Zealand would be the New Zealanders. Maybe my view has been clouded by my Australian partner’s typically anti-Kiwi view, but I’ve never met a New Zealander who seemed entirely sane.

Rassles – Australia would be a lot safer right now than Madagascar. If that matters.

NATUI – Good luck.

MJRC – I wish I was a bat.

Jamie – Hey, I’m going to miss snow.

Mongola – Good point on the title. I said the same thing last night. I think, in this context, cure refers only to the housing sitch.

Ariza – Yeah, let’s do something in the next week or so. It will give us a kick in the butt to finish unpacking!

Kitty – Trust me, Marion isn’t that much of a temptation for me.

Cat – Life is beautiful. The ‘bloody’ thing apparently is derived from the oath ‘God’s blood!” which, when the British were religious, was a big deal.

Mickey – That apple probably spent the last six months in a climate controlled warehouse as well. Yummy!

We have lemon trees in our yard, they were all birthday presents from my hubs. Next on my list is a miniture fig and tangerine. Ahhh, the joys of picking fruit from your yard. I am growing veggies this year because I am told they're pretty easy if you do your due diligence and because I figure out of your own yard is about as local as it gets. chriss last blog post..What Do People Do During an Economic Depression?
