The house that did not sell

Authors: Michelle

Yes folks, the auction has come and gone and unfortunately the house did not sell. There were only two groups at the auction and neither of them made a bid. Post auction we received an offer from one group who we counter offered. But they decided they had changed their mind altogether and were now looking to buy an investment...

Wine and cheese night

Authors: Michelle

We had our wine and cheese open house night last night at the house. It was not only a chance to invite all the peeps back that have been through the property but also show off the amazing views at night time.

I guess you are wondering what’s going to happen once the house is sold this Saturday (yes, I am being positive and not thinking of anything less!). It obviously means a really big change for us all for sure. But an even bigger one for Ruby, Roxy and I.

You see, we’re relocating to Central Coast, just north of Sydney....

Where in the world are Clint and Michelle?

Authors: Michelle

Yes folks, it’s been like a bad version of “Where’s Wally”. I’m embarrassed to say that we’ve been very neglectful of this blog of late. There are reasons for it though.

Unfortunately Clint and I have hit a snag in the road of our relationship and have decided to part ways. It does unfortunately...

Update from ODD

Authors: Michelle

Yes, ODD is the nickname I gave our blog…although I hope the nickname isn’t a reflection of the type of people we are!

It’s hard to believe that March is already here – where is this year going? Anyone else feel like the year is just flying by? Life is just so fast for us these days, maybe because Ruby is in...

What they don’t tell you before you get pregnant

Authors: Michelle

Yes, I could honestly write a book on the topic of things they don’t tell you before you get pregnant. I mean, you know that you are in for change and that some of that change will be physical but you don’t realise the extent of it. For example, I have always hand thick lucious hair. During my pregnancy it was...
