Coffee.......Wherefore art thou Coffee?!



This so aptly describes the predicament I find myself in daily, there are squirrels in the tree outside our balcony and the coffee is so bad it would make a grown mans taste buds scream in agony....The squirrels are super cute but have demonic eyes, they see into your soul and win every "who would blink first" competition.

It has been awhile since my first post, we have been super busy moving into our apartment, finding furniture on Craigslist and deciding how firm do we want our memory foam mattress to be....the struggle is real. On a side note for those wanting to use Craigslist here are some tips Carey and I have learnt;

  • If it seems to good to be true that car most probably is stolen, just walk away.
  • People put the price and it is not actually the price, it's like The Price is Right but nobody knows the price or gets the prize.
  • You can notice the potential serial killer/psycho sellers, they normally want to sell a Walmart fuzzy kitty puzzle for $300( I am not kidding!)
We have got a car, a lovely brand new VW Passat, there was some haggling involved and I may have mentioned jokingly the emissions scandal surrounding VW.....it went over like a lead balloon, I died a little that day at the realisation my humour is dead here. Next up......a big truck!

I am quite taken with this one, my bank account slightly less.


We had a good Easter, on Easter Sunday I got my black choir swagger on, it was glorious...all I needed was a fan, a white robe and I was ready to testify.

That is about it for now but here are some funny bits and pieces:
  • Micah's hair is super popular, he gets stroked at least twice a day, I am thinking of starting an Insta page to capitalise on the fame.
  • The storms here are intense, its amazing.
  • People here seem to think Australia is 22 degrees all year. Every time summer temps come up as a topic here they seem to think I will struggle in 39 degree heat, bless!
  • You can buy a Tundra here for a third of the price, it is madness.
  • People tend to just drift across lanes when they feel like it, it is like playing bumper cars every day.
Lastly I leave you with this picture, some of the best BBQ I have ever had, you are welcome!
