So its hot in Australia its hot in my side of Florida (gee whats new there)
You know what I'm starting to miss so much is a good old thunderstorm with heaps and heaps of rain on the roof.
I use to love going to bed with the rain and thunder and lightning and just laying there watching and hearing it.
I'm even hoping for a Hurricane just for something different haven't even had any of them for a long time now.
Most of you guys are in the cold weather now, who wants to swap for a week or two ?

Oh Dahls...you missed a whopper of a storm yesterday here. It started with sleet at 1pm, then freezing rain until around 3pm. Then at 5pm the fun began. We had 2 hours of freezing rain, followed by more rain, then followed by more freezing rain then rain yet again. At 11pm it stopped for 1 hour, then the winds picked up. Dennis stayed up all night thinking the house was going to blow apart....Emily & I apparently slept soundly through the worst of it last night. From midnight until 5am, we had 55 mph winds, and rain/hail/lightening...even our rockers on the porch were overturned and sent flying into the porch swing lol.....
I didn't hear a thing....good thing hubby was up making sure there was no tornado...else I'd have woken up in a tree more than likely  ..but would I want to swap it for constant humid hot weather?...not a chance...

I got up to take the dogs out at 7.30 this morning i have no idea if its me or what but by the time i got back in i was sweating.
I told hubby i don't know how much more of this place i can take.
We were talking hubby and i and as i pointed out to him there isn't even trees for shade around here so if you go for a walk your non stop in the sun and i cant take to the sun never have been able to.
Soooo I'm putting it down to Florida for why Ive put on so much weight .
Its not even the place you want to go for a walk at night time you might end up shot  .

well, you could always stay and live with us for the remainder of your lease rent free...that would be like paying your lease out wouldn't it? lol...there's a few big businesses opening up in the town Dennis works in. All of a sudden 2 major banks have begun building, a huge call centre is being built, an urgent care centre...the place is growing very fast...a foam factory to run with Tempurpedic which exists in Duffield already is being built soon, and an electricity plant that is using coal to create electricity is being built. They have just finalised their permits and have started putting up the signs for traffic to begin slowing down. (this company is 45 minutes away, and Dennis is going to apply for a job with them as a machinist or tool & die maker), when they start hiring in a few years time...
Or....
With all these factories around, you, Dahls and I could open up a deli, selling meat pies, sausage rolls, hot dishes, decent coffees, donuts etc, and make a killing. There is only one homemade food place, and they deal with burgers primarily.....it is a goldmine waiting to happen.....all the people at Joy already like the little bit of Australiana food they've had the pleasure of trying occasionally....lol...
If you want your lease paid, then you could always stay there until it's up, and send Dahls up to help me start the business hehehe....
