Winter Is Almost Over

Tamworth CBD
When we arrived here in Tamworth last February it was Autumn. My husband was told that we would only be here for three months, maximum four. So we expected to be back in Sydney by June, which was the start of Winter. It never happened. We're still here and Winter is almost over. I'm not complaining (okay, I am, a little). I'm thankful that my husband has work and that his salary can support both of us without me having to work. It's just that when people say something, you expect them to deliver. Anyway, as I was saying Spring is approaching fast. And it's my favourite season! No more bulky clothes, no more freezing toes. Yay! :)

Back from Hiatus

Hello! I just realized that it's now the 1st of June, coincidentally the start of Winter season here in Australia, and I have not written anything at all the whole May. The whole month went in a blur. We didn't do anything out of ordinary so I had nothing interesting to write about.
 
We are nearing our fourth month here in Tamworth and there's still no word from my husband's employer if/when we can go back to Sydney. I didn't bring any winter clothes here because I thought we would only be here until the second week of June. Boy, was I mistaken! So we've decided to go back to Sydney next weekend to get clothes and supplies from the storage. I will also send the balikbayan box to the Phils. It's not full yet, I still need to buy a few things from Ikea. I can hardly wait! :)

It's Getting Colder by the Day

The title of this post is also my current status in Facebook. I love winter and all (because I get to dress up! haha) but I reckon it's a bit too early to be experiencing this cold weather. It's not even mid-Autumn yet and winter is supposed to start in June! Oh well. One of the downside of cold weather for me is experiencing back pains because of scoliosis. I sometimes have difficulty sleeping but it's alright, nothing major. My husband brought our polar fleece blanket out this morning because I was shivering in cold. I'm hoping to be back in Sydney before winter is well on its way because it is colder here in Tamworth.

On a totally unrelated note, I'm still waiting for this thing that I ordered online. It's been more than two weeks since I paid for it but I guess because of the Easter holiday delivery somehow got delayed a bit. I'm a bit worried because when I track my parcel through Australia Post's website it says it's already delivered. Where? I don't have it yet. 

Forgive me for ranting. Now back to regular programming.
