LIFE IN THE SHED

So here we are 13 days into it, living in THE SHED. We have power, we now have some water in the 140000lt water tank. But we have no plumbing yet , so camping showers and toilet is what we are using. Great fun that is!!! We have a stove and fridge along with the BBQ so cooking is ok. I hate washing up dishes in a plastic bowl though. We have a huge mess as of today with all the plumbing trenches being dug. We also got an area scraped where the vegie garden will go. Oh and we have a real clothes line too.

Trips to the laundromat in nMerimbula are wearing thin, at $4 a wash and we always have several loads at a time. But its all good.

We go to the beach each day, sometimes twice a day. We have been socialising with the neighbors already. The kids have made friends and can just wander up the road, although it is about a 300 metre up hill climb. Tim has found a casual job at the local supermarket. The motorbikes are on order, the tractor arrives on the 18th, new body boards & wetsuits have been bought.

Life is great, we are having fun and enjoying learning the new language of living on the coast. We need to learn what winds are blowing, which way it's blowing, how it affects the surf, the tide etc etc.
