WEEK 104, TIME TO TAKE A BREACK...
So this weeks Blog is going to be a small one as the past 2 weeks or more we have run non stop and we are into our last week in this house sit and we have to get everything back in van and I had a few things that I need to get done so no real travelling this week, Sorry.
I believe I have spoken about this before its no always about the places you go and sometimes you need to stop and get those jobs done.
So after our guests left Sunday we had a quiet couple of days and just got the house in order and I had to return to dentist as this will be an ongoing thing for a while and had three teeth removed, now that was fun, driving home with a mouth full of cotton and why is it when you are like that they ask all those questions when you are not all there and really cannot answer them, so I had to rest up after that and thanks its all done now and will go back in a couple of weeks for a filling and clean then onto the replacement once all swelling etc. is gone. I have also been losing weight at a pace and need to get some new cloths as they are just falling off me now, from a 127 to 110 is good but I am a tall big guy so I need more off, so it looks like I have lost it, am so wide at shoulders, I need to lose a few more Kgs. Why all this work on me, well for 40 years I have looked my family's needs above my own and now its my turn to get me better and fix all those things needed to get me back to the way I should be now that I am a grey Nomad
So I was going to ask you all about the Blog would you like a weekly Blog as we have now or a Bi-Weekly as I notice the Blog has seemed to be not as strong with some anymore or it my poor writing skills, not giving you the full picture as the e-mails are not being read as much any longer down under 38% read it now.

I can show you the flowers around the place are just stunning and no picture will ever really give you the best view of them.

Once again I must talk about the weather and its impact on us, we are all good in a warm house for the good part of the winter months here knew that it would be wet and cold so we have had work around that a lot and more than we thought, but all good.
The weather people here are really good at letting us know when the rains are coming and you get plenty of reports about it, like this week I have put out our rain gauge and noticed we have had since last Saturday 98mm which seems to about what we get each week and since we got here to Sheffield.
And on Friday we will be ending our house sit here on Mt. Roland and moving on, for now its just down the road to the Van Park at Gowrie Park, as our friends from Melbourne are here its close to Sheffield and its good to be back in van for a while. SO we will be there for a week I guess before moving onto a new House Sit up near Burnie which will give us a base to explore that area.
That house will be a 2-3 month one and not sure what we are doing after that as we might head back to the mainland as we have been offered some work in a van park, which we really have not worked out if we will as of yet.
As I write this part of the Blog our friends have landed in Devonport and are having Breakfast with Family and we should see them later today I guess and then we really don't know what our plans are for this week will be as they lived here for many years and they may show us around some places we have not been I guess.
