Home. because very shortly I may not have one. We are to vacate this house in a few short weeks and have been trying to find another to rent in a very competitive rental market. Every house we inspect there are three dozen others inspecting and applying for the same property. I am feeling so insecure at the moment not knowing where to go. Bloody Canberra. Bloody real estate agents, bloody home owners. Bloody moving and packing. Bloody Bloody people who don't return phone calls.
I hate this. It never rains but it pours. Grrrrrr! Not impressed.

  3. I liked your choice of the essential words without messing about with the explanation. Why bother when they were self explanatory?

    Let's hope your anxiety eases soon with a new place to stay.

  4. Sorry I haven't been blogging since August. I had to change my e-mail and Blogger is giving me trouble. I pray I will have it all cleared up soon. Thanks fot visiting me. I hope to have a new post up soon.
    I am so sorry to hear of your trouble. I know many people here are having some serious issues because of the financial issues. Ii this isn't the beginning of a major depression I will sure be surprised. I remember the tail end of the last one. Not fun at all.
    Take care dear and keep your chin up.

  5. Linda..
    thanks for dropping by an leaving that comment. I have copied it, enlarged it and given to my wife adding "see, I told you so".
    Joe crocker's "You are so Beautiful" is one of my favorite songs. I love the end where his voice becomes thin and cracks just as my does when I get emotional.
    ...Wonderful choice of songs for your boys.
