Packing Up and Shutting Down

With only three days now until we move the time has come for me to say good bye - well, at least until we are settled into our new home. Later today or tomorrow I will be packing up the computer and then there will be no more blogging - for now.

Telstra has advised us that it will take four days to reconnect our broadband, so I expect that I may be without an internet connection until late next week.

In the meantime, I'm planning to take lots of photos so by the time I'm back on line I'll have lots of house and garden pictures to show you.

While the house has been renovated beautifully there will be things to change - for example, the room my two youngest boys will be sharing is pink - so I'll also be asking for decorating ideas and suggestions.

I am looking forward to sharing the next stage in our red house journey with you.

I'm so excited about 'seeing you' in your new house Kate. I hope these days with the pressure (be it real or your own!) of blogging removed brings you bright splashes of things to enjoy, even though those last days in 'the old house' are hard work.

I wish I could come and clean with you and make sandwiches for lunch on moving day. I wish I would help you unpack those kitchen boxes and get you settled in that one room at least so that life can keep rolling on. Know that I'll be praying for you and hoping that you coping with all that you need to handle.

There is nothing quite so delicious as sitting down on that first night in a new house and sighing contentedly that much of the forthcoming activity can be done as you want to or need it, rather than to a deadline.

Hi Tracy,

I would love to have you here with me! Perhaps you could come and visit us in Adelaide one day.

Thanks so much for your prayers; they make the world of difference.

Kate
