Good morning folks
Well, it has been a while I know. There is, of course, two sides to this move, and though it seems to have taken forever we are now approaching the final stretch! I am so happy to see this sign outside as you can imagine.
That means that I am now having to pack up almost a decade and a half of our life down south! Which is what I am currently doing. Our excitement for the new chapter is tempered by remembering all the times we had here. After all, this home is where we raised our two beautiful daughters and celebrated many special times.
They say that moving is very stressful and in many ways it is but every time things get a little too much we remind ourselves of where we are moving to, and what we hope to achieve with our new simpler, more creative life. It's hard to believe that the time is almost here, it seems that we have been in limbo for so long.
Wherever I look I am surrounded by boxes and chaos....
and empty walls too. Except for our larger pictures and a few that need a bit more care while wrapping.
I am going to miss this garden. It has been rather strange working in it recently knowing that we are going to not be here for much longer. The plants have decided to give us a lovely send off though and everything is blooming profusely.
I have gathered a few of the plants we couldn't bear to leave and these will form the beginning of our new space which will be a very different one though I am looking forward to having a blank canvas to create something special in.
So, here we our, getting ready for our new life in Eden. Though there is still a massive amount of work to do I am looking forward to really getting stuck in and cracking on.
Right, better get back to the packing.....
Take care.
