We have decided to renovate our home in March, mainly to paint the walls, upgrade the fence and replace the current carpets with timber flooring, and we have asked our tenants to leave by early March. This is all the preparations for my mum's migration to Melbourne by mid this year. The application was submitted July last year, so hopefully it will be granted no later than July this year.

从老婆和我前年12月买下房子， 去年二月份搬进来到现在有将近一年了。 在我们的院子里有好几颗树， 从来没有长出叶子， 开过花。 在院子里即难看， 又占地方。 很早以前我就很想把它们给消灭了。 一是没有工具， 二是懒。 圣诞节时和老婆去了warehouse买了个锄头， 我想是时候了。 [ Read More ]

Last time I went to the city to watch the firework was on New Year's Eve 2005 when my wife arrived in Melbourne for the first time. And for the following years we spent the night with friends at home and watched TV. I did go to the city with friends before 2005, and realised that it has no difference every year, and I don't feel comfortable with so many people around and so much noise. So we decided to celebrate this special night with friends at home this year again.

Nemo, Nata, Carol and Sarah joined us last night to have hot pot dinner. And we watched the BeiJing Olympics Opening Ceremony using the HD video I downloaded, to enjoy the proud moment of Chinese people again.

New is the year, new are the hopes and the aspirations, new is the resolution, new are the spirits and forever my warm wishes are for all of my friends and families. Have a promising and fulfilling new year. [ Read More ]

今天睡到10点钟才起床， 感觉太舒服了， 很少有机会睡个大懒觉。 昨天晚上几个朋友到我们家来吃火锅庆祝新年。 我们都不喜欢到city去看焰火表演， 因为我们觉的每年都是一样的， 没有什么新意， 而且人很多很杂， 太吵了。 还是在家里大家一起吃饭， 看电视比较舒服。



之前我下载了一个北京奥运会的高清录像， 我们想在过过瘾， 就又看了一遍。之后就看了些台湾的娱乐节目， 聊了聊天， 时间一晃就11点多了。 她们回去后我们就睡了。 其实现在我们对新年都没有什么概念了， 感觉每年都一样， 过不过都无所谓， 最主要是和朋友们和家人聚聚。

还是在这祝大家新年快乐！！ [ Read More ]

姐姐昨天又到上海出差了。 上周她说原本是和老板说好了不回家的， 可是在最后几天又突然改变主意， 还好老板答应了。 我担心的是姐姐每次出差都抽几天回家， 次数多了老板会不会不高兴， 以后都不让她出差了。 不过听姐姐说老板人挺好的， 应该没什么大问题吧。



现在姐姐一定又和我的儿子玩得起劲。 姐姐说毅捷长得越来越可爱了， 呵呵。 不过就是淘气了些。 妈妈说上次毅捷居然把我爸爸刷牙的杯子放到马桶里去舀水玩， 真是哭笑不得， 就差没有相片做证据了。

希望姐姐今年元旦在家的几天玩得开心。 [ Read More ]
