What did I say about this possibly becoming the least stressful move ever?
This is my third day fighting a cold and not feeling up to doing ANYTHING at all besides resting. I am barely getting the basics done to keep the household running ... It's like all my energy has been sapped and the work is getting piled up - with just 2-3 days left before the move. Arrrggghhh!
Shayden also has a cold - which means endless wiping of a little nose, not so good nights (last night was better) and a bit of a cranky baby needing lots of TLC - Tender-Loving-Care - for you Germans reading this:)
COULD YOU PLEASE PRAY FOR US TO GET BETTER REALLY QUICKLY and for us to get the remaining work done without another HUGE stress??!!!
I would soooooooooooooooo appreciate that!!!! Thanks!!!

Friday, June 6, 2008
... been thinking...
Every move is a little (or not so little) *death*- experience. This one is not so bad, since we're not moving countries or cities, just 5-minutes down a few roads. Yet, I'm a bit sad about moving away from where we have been for the past 15 months.
What I will miss:
I won't be able to tell 'til it's all over and done:) - there's still 2 weeks and HEAPS of work!
What I will miss:
- the gorgeous water view we were blessed with in this house
- the flowers in the garden - in spring and summer
- my daily walks to Kylie's preschool - my only exercise - 10 minutes one way - and
- socializing with neighbours, greeting and being greeted by familiar faces while walking - I enjoy that:)
- SPACE!
- Having a bedroom to ourselves again to retreat to if we want to - to be together as a couple or talk on the phone - no more talking in the car or in the bathroom in the evenings (with always at least one teenager in the living room and Shayden in our bedroom)
- AVOCADOS from our own tree 6 months out of the year - and other fruit-trees!
- Car-pooling with friends close by to all kinds of activities
I won't be able to tell 'til it's all over and done:) - there's still 2 weeks and HEAPS of work!
