And the walls remain down.....

Our renovation project got off to a wonderful start with a flurry of activity and action. We had stalled slightly as work demands have increased and more overtime and less energy has taken its toll. However our project came to an abrupt halt today as Joel has begun his offshore campaign. What was expected to be a small, aprox 10 day trip has in the past 2 days blown out to an all-singing-all-dancing-offshore-extravaganza. Joel came home the other day with 4 weeks as a possible timeframe for him to be away! Yikes! We might be sleeping in our lounge room when our guests arrive! He’s taken the camera so maybe we’ll be lucky enough to get some pics of his offshore adventures.

Meantime we’ve had some glorious autumn weather - cool, clear sunny days and very still. Surely it can’t last long...?

BIG congratulations to my cousin Penny and her partner Ben who have a brand new baby girl, Tilkah Lilly. Looking forward to meeting her soon. Also congratulations to Merete and Åsmund, proud parents of a baby boy Trym. Still to come, Mari and Kev are expecting very soon with the due date of 19th November, and Jess and Joel Carswell also due this month. It is a month of babies, and we wish everyone well.  I will continue to be loving (single for now) parent to our little darling Cooba who is as gorgeous as ever, especially now as the fence is finally keeping him in the back garden.

 

That’s all for now,

Emma.
