Autumn Leaves

After loads of trudging around and seeing some truly awful houses we've found a suitable house a few blocks away from where we live now. It is now up to the Embassy to finalise a contract with the realtor and arrange a moving in date and all the fun that entails. In the meantime I'm off to the UK for two weeks of meetings.

After toying with some frosty, then cold and damp weather we've hit some very mild weather. I know it is autumn because there are loads of leaves on the ground and it is dark for part of my ride to and from work. It can be awkward riding home on the bike path against the traffic because their headlights tend to blind me. Add to this that when the path is covered in leaves it looks just like the bits that are not path which are covered in leaves, runners and walkers wearing this season's colour (black) and the odd bike ninja is can be a bit sketchy. It is wrong however that I should be raking leaves in shorts and a singlet and sweating!

That's about it for this week; oh yeah I almost forgot there was this election thingy too you might have heard something about it.
