Bad News/Bad News

Ok this will probably all be good news to you all :P but just in case you guys did actually miss me or whatever it is.. But I plan on staying longer in Australia... Me and betty have been looking up stuff on the internet and we called the place or whatever you want to call it but.. We kinda have it figured out now about what we have to do.. There is definetly alot of stuff involved. First you have have had 3 months of specified work in regional Australia.. which we dont have yet.. but we will when its needed.. When we have worked that many days then we have to apply for the 2nd year working visa.. And then when/if that is accepted we can then buy a one way ticket home for way later, and then get health insurance.. So me and betty are no longer employed by Mcdonalds..We should probably tell them that now.. cus our first day of work at our next job is Aug 29..Im looking very forward to this job then the other option.. This job is on an asparagus farm, the ppl who own it our from our church, and they are really nice, they actually dont have alot of work at the moment but she said that she would really like to help us out, so she said that she would find stuff for us to do :D The other option would have been an abbtoir..We'd be in this big factory place thing i guess, i never saw it, but its where they butcher sheep, package it, and the stuff gets sent like all over the world..Its huge.. So im glad we arent doing that. Im glad that im done at mcdonalds now though.. Well actually i think i will miss it.. it was fun at times actually. didnt think wed be done so quick there though cus at the moment me and betty are at Eric and Marys.. Starting today me and betty will be babysitting all 6 kids till sunday.. ages 8 months - 11. they are good kids though. Should be fun though..
About staying here longer i just think that there is not that much waiting for me at home, or really much for me at home.. Well obviously theres you guys but thats a given, i do actually miss my family, and it sucks that i cant see any of you. Oh ya mom, i talked to your cousin, i dont know what to call them, And Amanda and her husband are really nice ppl, so thats nice too.
Anyways i hope you guys have a fantastic day with whatever you are doing :D

We make you sad?!!! I didn't read this before I commented on your email to me so I guess I got my answer. BooHoo. Well have fun Dawna. i think maybe we better use the web cam and Skype. That would be free talking and then we can see you!!!!!!!! That would be nice.
Is EVERYTHING figured out? Hope you don't get kicked out of the country. What am I saying! If you get kicked out then you will come home. :):) Love you.
