I was studying part time with Open Universities Australia doing a course on Internet studies, but due to a number of circumstances, have withdrawn from these studies and have returned to full time work with Network Couriers.

Jo and I have also moved house, AGAIN. The owners wanted to renovate and sell the house, so we had to move out; but we have moved into another place in the next suburb down, where we’ll be for the next 12 months at least.

One of the problems that I’ve always had with blogging, has been finding things to write about. I listen to allot of talk-back radio, in particular the ABC Perth, which has many interesting conversations, and obviously deals with daily news and issues; so I’m going to try and talk about such things on my blog; I hope you, the reader will join the conversations as well.

My Facebook and Twitter pages are also linked to the blog, so you can join me there if you haven’t already.

I’ll talk to you again soon.

Up until last week I have been doing the same run that I enjoy doing every day. Visiting the same places with the same friendly faces; and while some may find that boring or unexciting, I quite enjoy it.

Last Monday I was told that I was going to be learning a new run as they were changing things around a bit, so to compensate for the lack of drivers. I thought it was only going to be a temporary thing, so I wasn’t too concerned; but now I find out that they want to keep me on that new run permanently.

This last week I have been learning a new run. It’s an area which I don’t know and never go into personally, as it’s the opposite end of town to where I live. I have found it rather tiring at at times down right annoying.

So my motivation for getting up and going to work lately rather than being enjoyable, is becoming a thing I have to do in order to get paid at the end of the week. I’m also battling a cold & flu that has me blowing my nose every 5 minutes; not the best really.

We’ll just have to see how things pan out over the next few weeks. Hopefully I can get my old run back again.

My job has been busy over the past few weeks as I get back into it again & learn my new run; there have been times where I have wondered whether it’s all worth it, but am starting to settle into it and become more happy, although it does make me very tired.

We are still staying with my sister and brother-in-law with their family while we look for our own place; we have looked at several properties, but as yet nothing has succeeded; we know God has the right place at the right time.

Our stuff is still sitting in storage until we can secure permanent residence, so with the weather starting to cool, especially overnight, I am running out of warm clothing. We also have little Chlo’s 3rd birthday coming next week and we have a B.I.K.E (sssshhhhhh don’t tell her) in storage which at this point we cannot get to, so there may have to be something else for her birthday.

Anyway, I’ll stop rambling. Life seems to be busy especially with a house full of people (14 of us at present), but I’ll try & blog more regularly.

Since leaving Perth two years ago, I have been in contact with a colleague from my old employment through Facebook. She has been keeping up with me & and knew that I was back in Perth again and looking for work. It just so happened that they were looking for a new driver, and as I had previously worked there, offered me a job.

Today was my first day back on the job. I’m doing a different run to what I was doing before, but as I already know the job and the system, it is just a matter of learning the new run. Nothing much of the operational system has changed, so within a few hours on the job this morning, my memory was refreshed and back into it.

I am doing a northern run from Hillary’s to Brighton in the morning and then a southern run from Kwinana to Mandurah in the afternoon. I know the northern suburbs fairly well, so that run should be easy once I get the hang of it, whereas the southern run could be more tricky initially as I don’t really know the area; I’m sure it all be OK soon enough.
