It was the first time they have seen my house and I was a bit worried that they would not like it very much. However they said they loved and I think they really did. They like old things so were fascinated ... http://emily.footboot.net/2008/08/23/the-grandparents-visit/ I have been finding work pretty hard for the last couple of weeks.

Every task seem to be constantly interrupted by another task that ends up taking ... http://emily.footboot.net/2008/08/21/306/ Martin has been watching a fair bit of Olympics so I have found myself watching a little bit too.

Jess is coming down too and I always ... http://emily.footboot.net/2008/07/18/aaahhh-friday-evening/ On Tuesday and today I drove to work, that is I drove from Glebe (pretty close to the Sydney CBD) to Chatswood.
