Getting Real

Today we showed 2 prospective tennant's around our home. OK, we don't actually own the property but we have lived here for a while now and I really do class it as my home. I have a slightly emotional attachment here - Tasmin and Ruben came home here and it means leaving their lovely Zeddy and Rhubarb nursery and that makes me sad. We spent so much time on that room and thank's to Grandad had a really beautiful place for them to sleep.
Mum and Dad are down visiting at the moment and Cerys is staying overnight in the caravan, which is great for her. She loves spending time with Grandma and Grandad and even though they have lived over 500 miles away for many year's now, Cerys remains very close to them. I hope that they manage to visit us lot's in the US and form the same sort of bond with Tasmin and Ruben.
We have also had a delivery of more boxes today, so that we can try and pack a few more things away in anticipation of Monday. Our dining room really does give a new meaning to the term "Chinese Laundry"!! There are clothes EVERYWHERE. Charity piles, relative and friends piles, chucking pile, Shipping pile and of course the 1st month to take with us pile!
We are out tomorrow night enjoying some farewell drinks with friends. Even writing this down seems slightly weird - I wonder if my brain will ever engage and accept that it's body really is moving thousands of miles away!! Watch this space!!
