Last Day of Spring

Last day of Spring today. I am going to have to put Oli's choccie advent thingy in the fridge though as it'll melt if i leave it in the room... we're in for a hot and sticky heat wave-ee week apparently... I picked Oli up from school yesterday and the temperature was 29 degrees at 3pm... Queensland is quite 'tropical' so it's very humid in the summer months which can be quite draining.  It's a lot more bearable than last year though, so we must be acclimatising! 

I have now finished my contract at Nambour High School, starting my new (and permanent!) job at the end of January.  Quite emotional last few days... pressies from the kids and other teachers, yummy party food and the last lesson I taught (year 8s), they stood on the desks (!) and sang me a song from Glee... Those kids taught me as much as I taught them. Great fun.

We're moving to a place called Eumundi in early January. Signed the contracts today. We're still renting but really want to buy next year in Eumundi, so renting will give us an idea of what it's like to actually live there! Being in Eumundi will shorten my travelling distance to work and will bring us 15 minutes from Noosa beach! Oli will stay at the same school as there's a bus which'll pick him up virtually from our front door. We'll be able to walk to swimming pool, tennis court, shops and the famous Eumundi markets. Very excited: the next chapter.
