hobby at the moment is finishing the unpacking and to clean up. Going to do some gardening soon... well troy will do all the hard work of course pulling out all the dead or tacky trees/plants that i want gone, while i sit back and encrouage him hahahaha ill do the fun stuff.. like the planting. I think its fun.. no idear.. never done it before.. Its just going to be hard keeting it alive. I bought some flowers for the frount garden a few weeks ago.. killed them in 2 days. Aparently it was the hot weather that did it.. thats what ill keep telling myself anyways.. IM NOT A PLANT KILLER!! :D

Yeah still working as a kindy teacher. The kids are being wonderful at the moment.. its just the staff are being petty idiots. Both my center boss and my state boss are on my side thats what counts. Work has offered me to work casual hours next year. Basicaly with the money i will get with centerlink, i can only earn a cetain amount before they cut payments. Work said they will employ some one that works around me. Say if i can only do say 3 to 6pm, the other person covers the rest of my normal 8.5 hour day. So i just work as many hours as i can untill my centerlink payments are cut down.. and then i stop because its not worth it if they cut my centerlink payments down. Im lucky they are doing this for me. Troys moving in also before i start uni (hopefully) so ill be fine for money. Its not like im used to having lots anyways.. all of my money at the moment goes on bills.. i should actually have some money to play with when troy moves in and im at uni.

moving is deffently not cheap. Bond, rent, etc etc.. you need at least a grand for a normal priced place.. then if its not a furnished place.. thats more money.

I have a washing machine for sale though ben, if you need one when you move :D cheap only $50! Twin tub... really easy for a bloke to use.

    • The second part yes, the first part about easy VE calculation is something I've seen a few people talk about online.
    • You 100% could do that, would save money on a gym membership lol. But yeah, getting a cordless orbital sander will feel priceless coming from doing it manually.  Good luck with it mate
    • I initially was going to do the whole car with a block then realised, it would be a bigger monster of the job 😂 I guess that's all part of the learning process. I appreciate all that advice, I think I got a good idea on how to tackle this whole job.
    • I admire your efforts with the scuff pad.  As a mere mortal, I use this for the baulk of my sanding work- https://sydneytools.com.au/product/milwaukee-m18bos125-0-18v-li-ion-cordless-125mm-5-random-orbital-sander-skin-only Yes you can easily create a low spot while sanding. There are 2 types of filler, 1 part of 2 part. The 2 part filler will get used for large corrections and the 1 part filler will get used for pin holes and areas that only need slight filling.  Depending on how zealous you are with the sander (very easy to do with a power tool) or if you are chasing rust etc, yes those low spots will need to get filled or you will end up with a very obvious defects in the paint.  Using the guide coat and large sanding block, high and low areas will be revealed (watch youtube videos for a good visual on this). Its up to you if you think its worth the effort to make the car completely flat before you spray it (you make it flat by filling the low areas).  At the end of the day, it comes down to time. The end result comes from the level of prep put in to the car. If you want a perfect result, you have to put in the time during the prep stage or else it will be impossible to achieve a perfect result during the spraying process.
