The nights are not so warm right now, you can smell frost in the air. Its been around 2 - 3 degrees these past few weeks and the days are not much warmer yesterday had a maximum of 8 C, I have recently used the gloves mom gave me last Christmas And that seemed to do the trick.
We are also House sitting Terry's place, and i really like it. Its like having our own place, but most of our things are still at the other house. We are going to house sit until the 2 Nd of August, so there is some more time to go before we are done.
As for whats been happening since last time i wrote. Main thing is that im not working anymore. I quit my job mid June, 14 Th of June to be exact. My last day was the 29 Th. So currently i am looking for other work. And that means i should have plenty of time to update my blog. Sadly these last two weeks have been quite busy. First week of my time i spent taking care of Mike having the flu and applying for jobs.
This week have been quite busy as well Monday i spent applying for jobs most of the day.Tuesday i spent most of the day cleaning the house.
Wednesday i had an appointment with bark busters giving the dogs some extra training, but as soon as the dogs saw and heard the trainer they remembered him and were unusually well behaved.
I got training to handle the dogs since i had not been on the original training. We bought the dogs some new training collars and we have been practicing the commands with them for about 15 minutes every day. The idea is to have them not follow us unless they are being invited to go to that place. And if they are invited, to stick by our side or listen to the commands we give.
For now its going really well.
Thursday i had a driving lesson with a driving instructor and i got to know i just need to practice the few things they are going to test me on, The:
- I have left something behind. Meaning i need to do a safe U turn to get back and *pick up* the thing i forgot.
- Double lane roundabouts.
and
- Reverse parking. I need to reverse in to a parking bay instead of driving in to it front first.
She said im a good driver and look in the mirrors allot to notice anything coming up. Hopefully i will be ready to take my test very soon. Only bad thing is that the battery in the car im usually using to practice driving has gone completely flat and needs to be recharged before i can drive again.
later that day i also had a dog wash coming by to wash the dogs where we are currently house sitting, since they were quite smelly.

Yesterday, Friday i had a job interview And as far as i could tell it went pretty well, They are going to contact me back Monday to tell me their decision.
Today has offered more excitement than we really wanted. We ended up not going to IKEA since i was not feeling so well, instead i spent the morning cleaning up the house we are house sitting and then went to have lunch in the other house, Where Mike were helping hes dad with some more earth works in preparation for an outside area.
During lunch i spotted two cars driving in the bush across the road, illegal to start out with but we assumed they were lost. Then they got down to the far corner and realized they could not go any further, so instead of turning back they drove straight through the fence in to private property. Where they sped around stirring up dust. In the meantime we were on the phone to the police, taking photos and video. We also phoned our neighbor who is a police officer. He saw parts of it from hes top floor window. He also called the police. After the cars had spent some time in the property one of them drove out through the fence where they smashed through it and drove back the way they came. The other car however sped across the property and smashed through the fence out to the road and sped past our house.
we had another look at the photos and we had caught one of the number plates, so there was another call to the police giving them the number plate.
Hopefully they catch the guys, we still need to contact the guys that owns the property so they know and they can claim any repairs back from the police due to criminal damage.
Hopefully i wont have another *exciting* day like this one any time soon.
I would also like to congratulate one of my cousins for getting engaged. I wish you all the best for a long and amazing future together!
