in sydney

We're here.

I can't blog much, we're at an Internet cafe and every minute is costing us.

Weather has been awful, raining all the time.

Day was absolutely miserable, the pits. He's been stuck in the room, unable to go out much.

I was miserable, recovering from a cough.

Dee has been difficult at night, screaming away and I think the walls are so thin the whole road can hear us.

There's nothing on the TV, absolutely nothing, so no entertainment.

The highlight so far: KK's home-cooked meals. Men can truly cook. At least, this man. I can't cook for nuts.

But he's managed to concoct steaming hot chicken broths, ham mushroom pastas. They fill my tummy and warm my heart.

More later, when we eventually manage to find a place to stay. That's another killer.

Hang on in there, Sher. The weather will improve, Dee will stop crying, and you will feel better. We miss you already.

am glad you got into oz safely.

winter can be depressing & is responsible for seasonal affective disorder (s.a.d.!). i know i was kinda down during my first winter in nz too. just so long as you are aware & take steps to alleviate that icky feeling. sing songs with the kids. play hide & seek in the room. jump on the bed! go out for a walk as soon as the rain stops.

it will stop raining. day will feel happier outside, dee will adjust to the new place, & you will feel better too.

rain, rain, go away...! :)
