Wowww.. more boring rambly posting because I am bored and lonely. I was so bored I even cleaned the whole house! It looks really great 8D.
Port Pirie kids must be 50% stupider than Adelaide kids or something. Yesterday I was just chilling in front of the computer half asleep after getting up at midday when all of a sudden our door bell rings. We dont really know anyone up here, so I had no idea who it could be.. then I hear wild giggling, screaming and yelling and what sounds like a stampede of little animals run up the corner side of our house. I look out the window and lo and behold standing directly opposite our back gate in plain view and ear shot of me is a pack of scruffy looking kids. They proceeded to discuss their daring ding dong dash on my house extremely loudly while Jess barked her head of at them. So I crept out real quiet through the side backdoor, hissed at Jess to shut up and snuck up to the fence.. I wasn't even going to yell at them or anything but when the dog stop barking they turned around saw me standing there and were like.. o shit! and ran/scooter'd away fast as they could lol. I just couldn't believe the stupidity of the whole thing.. why didn't they run all the way away from our house instead of standing outside the side entrance to our place where I could see them!? Maybe they got confused because our house is on the corner and kind of almost has two fronts.. hmm. Whatevs. Sadly that was the most exciting thing that happened all day for me yesterday.. D:
Baaahhh I'm working 9 hour shifts over the weekend both days.. loooongg shift is longgg.. Then again I've hardly worked this week so.. eh.. not that fussed! I should probably ask for more shifts so Im not so bored all the time.. but.. I think I'll wait for a little longer seeing as Im new at the store. I dont want to step on anyones toes or anything..
Lol Jess is magic.. she can predict when Ben is coming home! Whenever she gets up and stands by the gate and makes her weird whining noise and wags her tail like crazy.. I know Bens car will pull up in about five minutes. I guess she's learnt the sound of his car or something.. it is pretty loud. It's so cute!
Blah.. Im so annoyed at Coles. They now owe us a heap of money. The only reason we really came up here was because they offered Ben extra money and a really great deal on rental assistance.. the problem is we haven't seen a cent of the extra money or any rental assistance since moving here. Ben called them last week and they had apparently 'forgotten' to put the paperwork though.. how fucking inconsiderate. We were also lead to believe that they would pay for rent on our other house until someone else rented it out.. turns out that, that part of the deal works on a refund basis and they will refund us the money spent on the other rent after we have receipts for it which is fair enough I guess.. but I just wish they had of told us that before! We were so fucking unprepared for that and it nearly put us in a lot of trouble with bills (moving house is expensive yo! Dont get me started on disconnection and relocation fees..fuck >:C). I dont know what would have happened if Brooker Avenue hadn't of been rented out this week because I dont think we could have afforded both lots of rent because we had to pay for all of this other stuff and it would've made things real tricky. I know I whinge too much but I just feel a bit cheated.. we've inconvenienced ourselves in a massive way by relocating our entire lives far away from our home within two and half weeks.. and for what? To be poor and having to decide between food and bills?! blaaaah. Dont get me wrong.. Coles is pretty damn good when it comes to looking after their employees.. but I just wish that money had of come last week. Fingers crossed it comes next week so we have a bit extra for going shopping in Adelaide!
Gosh Im bored.. it's days like this that I'd call some friends and go do a bit of window shopping and cafe hopping in Adelaide town.. can't really do that up here :/. I'm going to go talk on the phone and sew my dogs pyjamas that we made from a hooded kids towel that has a mermaid on it.. it's dorky and adorable and she looks like she's wearing one of those hideous brightly coloured scene hoodies (those ugly ones with the metallic dollar signs.. gross) photos later haha. |
