Yeah baby!
Its certainly been a while since my last entry and man its been pretty damn full on! Firstly I finally bought a place in Langford (3 x 1 duplex) it was a bit more than that I wanted to pay but the way the market is at the mo its more like you snooze and you lose! The amount of times I rang up about a place only to be told that it had already sold was really common so I was really surprised when this place was still available when I rang up.
There had been an offer put on the place but it was rejected so I very quickly got my butt to have a look at the house and was really surprised that of the 19 couples that went through the place there was only 1 offer. It does need some work and a new kitchen and bathroom (its currently looking like something out of Austin Powers with the 70’s décor). But that’s something to do later on.
So another 2 weeks and I will be moving out! I haven’t gotten to the fun bit of buying the big electrical things just yet but have a bit of money to spend so im hoping that I have enough left over to get a big plasma or LCD TV. There is so much to organise so I wont be sitting at home playing PS2 for the next 4 weeks by the looks of it.
Next Saturday will be doing some work on the car, putting an air pod on the commodore so will be helped by one of the guys from work (extractors will be next). Have been doing a lot of homework on the air pod and there are conflicting opinions on whats better (air pod or panel filter) so hopefully the set up we have in mind will work best.
Ok well salsa has been really quiet in the past month (why I have no idea) but thankfully Thursday was a lot better, for a start I had someone else in the class to practise with (Leah) so after the lesson we went mad on the dance floor (dancing that is) and it was great, still a lot of practise needed but slowly getting there.
Something else which has come into my mind this week is planning for my 30th! Yeah Im getting old but hey don’t we all at some time?!?!? Anyways hopefully will be having it at the Deen and it will be HUGE, but will have to book it before I get ahead of myself.

Where the hell did January go?!?!
As you can tell by the title January flew past faster then a F-18, it was what I would call "Bizzay"and febuary looks like being the same.
At the mo its like groundhog day with house hunting, salsa and work being the things that seem to be on my mind more than anything else, BUT then I had something else to keep me busy. A job come up at our head office which pays ALOT more then what im currently on, the position is similar to what I do now but more involved.
Dont get me wrong I really enjoy being at Welshpool as my Boss is da bomb and most the guys there are really great but an opportunity like this doesnt come around that often. So I bit the bullet and applied for the job with probably half the company doing the same! SO whatever happens is anyones guess, the extra pay will definately help.... :)
Most my time at the mo is spent house hunting and I thought searching for a car was a pain, well times that by 100 and thats what its like, I missed out on a really nice place on thursday so its back to the grind. You have to start worrying when you start dreaming about buying houses (or is that having nightmares?). Cant wait till its all over then I can concentrate on others parts of my life, like sleep!
Well I gotta get back to the business of house hunting, got a place to loook at this arvo (gee cant wait)....
