:D Hello everyone, I actually made it!
Good flight and jet lag making me a party animal!....No seriously, everyone here has really come together to help us make the transition (Cheers Dave for being an airport shuffler...even if we did get lost twice!!! lol)
The garden is lovely, and the weather is great...(better than in the NorthEast I can assure you)
The challenges I am now setting myself once I have settled back in, are seeming so much more possible now that I have a more critical eye on my surroundings. They are all (I think) good moves.
From another perspective, there is a numbness, that I feel relates to the familiar yet distant sense that returning to my home town brings.
I am happy to be home, and so are the kids, suffering Jetlag with aplomb...yet there is a sadness, almost grief about where we were, and what we have left behind. We went to Cambridge MA, knowing we would return to England...
but leaving, despite knowing that our stay was only for a while, not for ever, was something to look forward to...the going home...
Now we have 2 homes... :)
