South of the border

It's been a few weeks since I last posted and so much has happened! I have been a Victorian again for a little over a week now and am enjoying being back. It's amazing to think that just a few short weeks ago I made the decision to come back and now here I am. God took care of things so beautifully with me resigning form work and telling my housemates they needed to find someone else for the room. There were a few people I was a little nervous about telling but everyone has been really supportive and can see that I've made the best decision for me at this time. As hard as it was to leave friends behind, it has been such a God thing - I've really had a peace about it. So thank you all who have supported me through this. You have made what sould have been a horrible transition so much easier to deal with.

It was great to have the extra week in Sydney once I had finished work. It gave me some time to get things organised and spend some time relaxing with people important to me. Jon has been a tower of strength since I made the decision to move back. I know it's been really hard on him but he's been able to set that aside and see that this move was necessary and in the long run will make me a lot more fun to be around! In the mean time we get to rack up some frequent flyer points and use up credit on our phones!

So life in sunny Gembrook has been a fair bit busier than I first anticipated, not that I'm complaining. I've been fortunate enough to get some work one day a week at my sister's Sweet shop... if you are ever in town you must come and visit the Gembrook Sweet Co... and also I've had a few days work gardening. It's been so nice to do work that hasn't required me to sit behind a computer for 8+ hours a day. Tomorrow is my first day in the shop on my own - a little bit daunting but I figure if I just take it one customer at a time it can't be too bad... and as my very wise sister advised me, if i don't know something, just fudge it. I think fudge may be a very popular choice tomorrow...

Well that's enough rabbiting on from me! I'm not sure when my life will be exciting enough to write anything new so we'll see!
