We are embracing retirement, and making the most of it.

We knew we were never going to sit still for long, so whilst we are happy and healthy we will be out and about seeing the world………… full time.

We are out of the fast lane and taking the slow road ahead

Can the Cold give you a cold ?

Derek and I are both down with dry coughs which have lasted nearly a week.  I have almost lost my voice even though we rug up well, bought 2 heaters and have the under floor heating on. We gave up early morning walks after only 2 days and sometimes have to wait untl lunch to go out for a walk.  

We are happily unpacked and quite settled. Got foxtel to give us NSW news instead of Qld, we didn't notice for days that we were watching Qld, it just seemed normal. The kids are a treat and we see them everyday.  We did the soccer run on Saturday morning over at Cobram which was a lot of fun. The babysitting 4 days went smoothly, and we lived between the 2 houses, tripping back and forwards each day.

Today we ventured out to the shops again, to finish the last of stocking up the fridge and pantry with sauces, pickles, baking ingredients, cheese and meat. We are hoping we can just shop fortnightly as it is not a 5 minute run anymore. We have been to Bunnings 50min away, Mitre10 35min, Woolworths 35min away all in Victoria, and today we went to Coles in the opposite direction to Deniliquin -west of Finley, also 35 minutes away.  We needed a packed lunch for the long jouney.

 

You have got  to love the country, no traffic getting to Deniliquin and a park right out of the front of Coles.
