A friend told me that homesickness often kicks in 4 months after emigrating. I guess she meant after the initial excitement wears off you can miss things about "home" more.
We're 4 months in Perth and its not home sickness thats making me blue but a series of bad luck and anxiety over buying a house. Its back to a waiting game- just like the visa application and house sale.

I posted last week about my friend bashing my new car- this was followed the next day by a speeding ticket and then my daughter's water bottle leaked on my snazzy mobile and it died.
:(

WE have put an offer in on a house and the selling agent is playing silly games with us. Offer went in on Friday. WE got a counter on Saturday night (the owner couldn't make a descision until after the footie). WE countered again on Sunday and then the owner wetn off to Melbourne allegedly.

I think I must have a negative aura about me because I went to view a house on Saturday-in case we lose out on this one. The agent had lifted up a trapdoor in the dining room to reveal the wine cellar. As he was chatting to me a lady walked in the room and fell straight in. There was silence and I swear to God I thought she was dead. It was a staight 7 foot drop. to cut a long story short she escaped with an injured ankle.

Oh, I NEARLY FORGOT, there was a tornado yesterday. Our raod was closed with fallen trees and a skylight broke causing water to pour over my brand new dining table and chairs. Luckily theres no major damage.

I'm now sitting at home on the puter trying to stay out of further trouble. :( :(

There a bad weather warning for this afternoon so just waiting to see what happens . Bit scary.

BTW we have put in another counter offer for our house so keep your fingers crossed.
Have seen another house on the web. I remember our relocation agent advised us to fall in love with lots of houses not just one. I've phoned the sleazoid to make an appointment to view.
This house has no wine cellar so I think I'll be safe.
