How can it be August already?!

This means 6 months living in our one bedroom unit..

Luckily, things are happening very quickly on site for House De Luca. With weatherboards on, it’s water tight and ready for internal fit out.

What does come as a shock is the extra costs that are now starting to add up in the final length. People warn you about this when building new, but until those figures start to come through, you think you’re safe from it all!

As the stress of two mortgages threatens to swallow us whole, I have to reflect on the sweeter things July has brought us

Mr6 got his first tick bite showcasing mother’s guilt about not having spotted it

Olympics is in full force with Mr6 comparing his gymnastic talents against well, every other country, which resulted in him writing a letter to Lauren Mitchell on the Aussie Olympics team, touting her a hero and sending his hope in her winning a gold medal (not a silver one, that’s not as good apparently)

Bob the new resident fish living through his first month consumed with inner city living dust and pollution.

Learning that I am the master of making Batman jump on the newly attained DS (making me super cool mum)

That Mr 6’s take on the latest Batman movie is that there were too many guns (again showcasing bad mothering of allowing him to watch) and that Robin needs to make an appearance sooner, he is after all, his best friend (?)

And the main highlight, confirming that my love of carbs is not all in all a bad thing! http://www.bodyandsoul.com.au/food+diet/diets/how+to+eat+carbs+and+lose+weight,16673

Phew!

Toast time…
