Haven't blogged for a while, no particular reason, I always said I'd blog because I wanted to rather than I thought I should so today you get 'Growing up.'
Strange day my dears, strange day. Number three son & his gorgeous girlfriend (obs!!) are moving to their own abode, their own space, indeed their own home, and it is good.
Though with my unemotional hat on ( which doesn't exist, all of my hats are very emotional) we will very obviously miss them and all they bring to our lives. But this is what any, every parent works up to isn't it? Their offspring 'fleeing the nest,' that's how every healthy parent /offspring relationship works surely!?
I have no doubt Oliver has found me as irritating and annoying as I found my parents ( be disappointed to find out otherwise!!) but equally I have no doubt he and Laura know how much we love them and how much we will miss them, though I would not have it any other way.
We helped them move in yesterday to a very nice place in Leighton Buzzard, somewhere that everyone seems to be moving to! Still afew smaller bits & pieces to take but that's all in due course.
We have a new patio door & bathroom window going in tomorrow, once that's sorted I can start bringing down stuff from the loft to sort out. There's a quarter size snooker table up there that we haven't played on for years, infact you cant see the bloody thing as there's crap on it, next to it and under it!
No more will I keep broken computers in case, at some later date they decide to work again. Got the garage sorted last year (with a great deal of help, encouragement and wise words form T) now its the loft's turn. Also having some work to open out the dining room & lounge abit.
All change!
