The Good Life: May 2012
http://jonesgoodlife.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, 27 May 2012. First job is to make some choices. We got Resene colour charts that Mum sent over from New Zealand to help us make some choices. Then we went to B and Q to check out their selection. We have to finish the outside walls first so we choose some black for a feature wall at the very front of the house. B and Q has cool toys for mixing paints. Pot Plants.sort of. 其實老爸有說,這些樹是要在1 2個月前先在原地將根切斷,等根部受傷的部分恢復後才將樹移植是最好的,但是因為Bello家租約將在5月底到期,所以我們能挖多少算多少。 Saturday, 26 May 2012. That's Shakir, Bello's...

The Good Life: August 2012
http://jonesgoodlife.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, 26 August 2012. So far we have two orange trees, one lemon, one guava, one cinnamon, one avocado and 25 banana trees. Saturday, 25 August 2012. We got round to planting some more fruit trees today. The above guava tree was from Jenny Peng's Mum's farm. This lemon tree we moved from our current house. We thought we killed it but with all the rain of the last two days it has. Friday, 24 August 2012. Http:/ www.facebook.com/groups/141146005948782/. Wednesday, 22 August 2012. Tuesday, 21 August 2012.

The Good Life: 新玩意兒 Buns.
http://jonesgoodlife.blogspot.com/2012/11/blog-post_5316.html
Saturday, 17 November 2012. Travis and Maggie were kind enough to buy us a bread maker. I've never had one before but the whole concept of them is awesome. It has a timer, so you (read: Ivy) just drop all the ingredients in at night and set the timer for what time you want fresh bread in the morning. It mixes and kneads the dough and then starts baking about an hour before you want it. Genius. Apparently you are allowed to open it mid knead to see how it is going. Nuts can get added too.

The Good Life: June 2012
http://jonesgoodlife.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, 30 June 2012. Well that's wrong too. The balcony railings have been put up. But they are wrong. The railings should be simple straight lines. Ivy almost shat the bed when she saw them. This will probably involve an argument with Mr Lin. He's on his way to the house to have a look and see what happened. Good chance that our railings have been put on another house somewhere in Hualien. I kinda wish we had used the colours to spell out Jones here. Thursday, 28 June 2012. Now it has grouting. Three...

The Good Life: 最近 Recent Stuff
http://jonesgoodlife.blogspot.com/2012/11/blog-post_17.html
Saturday, 17 November 2012. We were in Taipei for a few days at a book show so weren't able to post much about what was going on at the house. Mini Lee finished the front fence. I think it looks great and am wondering why we don't do this style of fence the whole way round. No that is not the final colour for the gate. Some more work done on the garage. The plywood here will be covered with cement boards next week. We had hoped it would be done today but the rain prevented any work getting done.

Monday, 29 October 2012. This is coming along nicely too. First meal in the new oven. The front fence is coming along nicely. Mini Lee has been hard at work on this one. Thursday, 25 October 2012. The bench tops have all been put in now. We are still waiting for the gas stove but that should be here tomorrow. We think we might've made the island a bit small.time will tell I guess.

The Good Life: party~
http://jonesgoodlife.blogspot.com/2012/11/party.html
Monday, 5 November 2012. We have some pretty sweet friends. This was a gift from Jo, Joe, Sarah, Cobus, Jenny, and Mason. It's friggin' awesome. The back folds up to make a chairs or it can be flat like this to lie down. Thanks so much folks! Small dinner party for JP today. We always miss her birthday due to a bookshow in Taipei so thought we'd do something early this year. New couch arrived today. Comfy. Two birds, one oven. Jo made apple crumble. That was awesome too.

The Good Life: July 2012
http://jonesgoodlife.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, 29 July 2012. You know you live in the country when you look out the kitchen window and the neighbor is sowing rice. We got bathroom doors this morning! Wednesday, 25 July 2012. I really wanted to take the plastic off to have a good look but Ivy wouldn't let me. Probably not until after the painters have been in. Tuesday, 10 July 2012. Sunday, 8 July 2012. Part of our Sunday was spent moving more trees. One mango, one cinnamon, one dog, one road hazard. That's the mango in the ground. 這顆檸檬樹我們已經種了...
