Cottage!

Well, here I am writing from the world's most comfortable couch (guaranteed to put you to sleep!) on a VERY slow dial-up internet connection that may give out at any moment. You guessed it! I'm at my cottage! I have orientation at work on Tuesday evening, so I thought I would come out here for a few days before I get into the busy-ness of a summer amusement park job. I haven't been out here much for the past few years cos I've been in Y-town, and I have missed it dearly! I think I spent a total of like 4 nights here last summer... Anyway, it is lovely out here. Peter came out for the afternoon today, and we went for a walk on the beach. It was perfect. I love the beach. I don't care that it's mostly mudflats and that the bits that aren't never really dry out... There's a bit of sand by the creek that stays dry, so that's good enough for me! I love sinking to my knees in mud (which I definitely did today and had to be pulled out! haha) and exploring the caves and just drinking in the salt air and the beauty of God's creation. There's no place like this place... it definitely is my absolute favourite place in the whole world! I don't want to change a thing about it... I know it looks like it's still in the 70's, but it's home.. the one place that's always been a constant in my life despite my family's frequent moving about. It's rich with memories, laughter, and fun. It's the one place I come to and just can't help but be anything but who I am. Oh cottage, I love you!

Nana and I watched The Queen tonight. It was quite good! I was definitely impressed. A bit slow... but if you're at all interested in the royals, it is definitely checking out. I can definitely see why she won an Oscar for her role. Anywho, this couch is putting me to sleep, so I best hop over to my bed!

p.s. Mum, Nana said you wanted to renovate.. NO! WE ARE NOT PAINTING THE PANELLING! But you can do what you want with the ceiling... I suppose it could use another coat of paint.. but THAT'S IT! THE REST STAYS THE SAME!!!!
