Changed da house,
Changed da look.

BTW, my bathrobe's usually pink
and we don't have a fireplace.
Other than that,
it's pretty accurate...

~ Standing on the threshold ~

We've just come back from our second trip to Palmerston. Twice tonight, we've loaded the car to the brim and chugged along further north to unload in the new home. Twice, Tony's negotiated the car out of this insanely tight corner round our new lock-up garage. Twice, we've looked at the two bedrooms, compared cupboard space and come to the conclusion that there was a good chance we could get the bed in... but never open the cupboard doors fully again.

Still, the kitchen now looks bigger than I first remembered, I've discovered that we have a pretty big pantry (oh joy!) and TWO huge linen cupboards in the hallway.

The house in McKellar looks like we've hardly made a dent in it, though. 2 friggin' carloads, and nothing seems to have moved.

The husband is here with the box for the CPU. I think he's trying to tell me something.

This will be my final post from McKellar. Gosh I'm such a sentimental girl. See you in Palmerston.

Yo the-lady-formerly-known-as-Ms. Lim,

Posted a comment in previous entries of yours. Anyway, THANKS FOR NOT TELLING ME THAT YOU ARE MARRIED!!!

HAha. Hey, check out my personal web site (http://www.pbase.com/poppycock18). I've been working in Seoul for the past 4 months. Catch up, yeah?

And one more thing: Congratulations!

Jerry,

Wah lau, you ah... Not that I haven't tried lah, but I have no idea which email address you were now using, I'd been calling your Singapore handphone to no avail and NO ONE picks up your landline, even though I was willing to brave explaining myself in halting Mandarin. You were SUCH a difficult one to get a hold of and my mother was holding onto your wedding invitation until she too finally gave up.

Besides, you're in Korea. And you didn't tell me you'd swanned off to work there with girlfriend until... well... now!!! Ah HAH! You are equally guilty, blblblblblblblblbl!

(You can practically feel my maturity oozing outta ma ears...)

Will check your website soon. How have you been? Need to talk to you about job options in Korea too, actually. Scouting around for sister-in-law...
