I have been so busy lately, oi. (This has been mostly a good thing!) I swear I haven’t forgotten any of you though. 😉 Now on top of all the moving stuff and job hunting, I am sick too. Oh joy of joys. 😉 My son came home on Friday with what seemed like a minor cold and I seemed to escape it until Monday evening. (poor kiddo was worse for the wear on Saturday, but got right onto caring for him, so hopefully between myself and now what his dad is doing, he’s better now.) I now have bronchitis, not surprised because I have chronic bronchitis and asthma. However, enough whining!
The closing date on the house is tomorrow and we begin moving in and should be done this weekend. I am nearly ready to go, just have my pictures to wrap up once I have containers for them and I will have them when I am done with laundry (laughs) and keeping a few bathroom things out that I still need to use yet and will be putting those into my backpack later. We went shopping Monday evening for basics, it was so exciting, a bit expensive, but cool none the less. 🙂 I am so ready for this next chapter to begin!!!
I have a great guy in my life, a wonderful son, and some pretty terrific friends that I am surrounded by on a constant basis. There are some pretty outstanding family members and friends that I don”t get to see often as well, can’t forget to acknowledge the difference they make in my life, even if it is from afar. 😉 Doug’s dad gives me work when he can so that I can feel productive and have a little cash. Help is coming for Grandma and still doing the best I can for her until things change that way, glad I have been able to do this for her. Life has some pretty big bumps along the way, but the good outweighs them in the end and they also teach me and help me grow.
I won’t have internet for a little while once we move, so don’t be alarmed WordPress family, I am still here and will be back to posting more regularly once things have settled down a bit. Till then, I hope you all are out there living life to the fullest! Make cherished memories, let kindness and good deeds happen naturally, love fiercely and with all you have, and live each moment being grateful for the time you’re given. I love you all, be back soon!

Moving home “Can” be stressful. We moved here 3 years ago and I was lucky about 10 of my mates all came in and did the painting, put the wood flooring down, re-done the bathroom and other odd jobs. Without them I would have been lost.
Dawn was 8 months pregnant with our 2nd Daughter Chloe at the time, and I didn’t let her see the house till it was ready to move into, I mean pictures up, clothes all hung up and put away, dishes in the cupboards, EVERYTHING was done. I walked her in with my hand over her eyes, and said “Ok you can look” She started crying “At 8 months pregnant she would have cried at a joke to be fair” And here we are….
Hope the move all goes to plan and it is as smooth as can be.
Also, hope you are keeping well.

Wow, quite the adventure!!! I am glad you had such amazing friends to help you and hey, lovely surprise for her….totally beautiful!!! *side note* Yeah, when I was eight months pregnant, my moods were all over the place…though pregnant or not, if Doug did that for me, I’d cry my eyes out. 😉 Seriously, that was so sweet! Anyway, thank you, I am sure everything will go well! I will update you all once we’re settled in, probably even show you a picture or two. Take care, Shaun!
