murphy is laughing again!! & other musings

July 16th, 2024 at 03:08 am

So we didnt get the house and the house is over an hour away and just not practical to move there when we will be down this way all the time, rent would be more, gas (petrol) would be more..so not practical. 

My oldest DD didn't get the procedure done, she went into hyper stimulation so has to wait at least another month...but she is doing okay with that...has been a 4 year journey for her so far.

Hubby now had to have monthly injections into his eye..he had a bleed in his eye and has macular degeneration..was diagnosed a couple weeks ago when he got his first shot...his eye sight has already improved..so that is good.

The dog had the vet and we are just waiting on blood test results...he had put on a couple pounds over 3 weeks for no reason, so that cost us almost $500...

On the upside we have all been doing good, I have 1 debt paid off this month..all bills are paid...still looking for houses but the right one will show up...so life is pretty sweet!!

    sorry to hear about the medical problems but glad to read of improvements and of debt payoff. Good luck with the continued house search!

    I'm curious if Australia is seeing the same tight inventory in the housing market as we are here in the US?

    Yes there is very tight inventory and prices have skyrocketed...an average 3 bedroom home with no updates is around $800,000 now....and you get very little yard....but a deposit on a house like this is around $80,000 as you have upfront fees to pay which is usually around $50,000...to rent a home like this it is around $600 plus per week....and that will rise I'm sure because with the new laws things have to be updated in homes that no longer comply!! and what we need in a house there are 2..unless we want to pay upwards of $850pw rent...im not willing to do that (yet)....but even then minimum is $620pw...does that make sense??

    Glad there is improvement on your husband's condition. Scary stuff. Sorry things didn't work out on the house, but maybe for the best.
