Moving is a bitch at the best of times. But when you move with a bad back, it seems to be a thousand times worse. And that is exactly how my most recent move felt. It literally left me flat on my back for the following two weeks! Much pain and many Osteopath treatments since, I am almost back to "normal".
As for the actual move, apart from my old body not quite coping it went relatively smoothly and quite quickly. Between my funny young removalists and the fantastic help from my parents I couldn't really complain. Mum cleaned both old and new apartment. Dennis lugged things back and forth, even though he too was struggling with a bad back! Go figure? And the young boy's did all the hard stuff!
But best of all, I am now back in the fantastic Eastern burbs where I belong :) Right in time for summer, walking distance to the beaches and a flat double the size of the last!
So as my little sister requested, here are some initial snapshots. It will look a little different by the time you arrive though... :)
The not quite finished living area...
Kitchen...
My lovely 1960's powder blue bathroom...
My bedroom...the photo does not do it justice by any means!
Spare room...
Little VIM and his lock up garage :)
Balcony...I have had to buy a smaller outdoor setting in the interim. This one too large for the new space.

My ocean view...was a cloudy day so the water looks a tad grey in this shot
Very happy me being back in the Eastern burbs :)
