Wow... I've just been on the phone with Matt this morning, well.. texting anyway. We have been trying to schedule things into our quickly diminishing weekends.
I can't believe how little we can actually do now... We have known about this move for so long now and seriously, up until about a week or so ago.. a day was a day.. you know... it didn't seem to be moving along very quickly... and now.. its hurling towards us like a freight train.
I'm a little scared now... i dont know if that is the word or not... im worried about being that far away from everyone that i love. No longer will we be able to be impromptu and say "what the hell... lets jump in the car and go and visit mum, or mum and dad".... they will be a days drive away! We wont be somewhere we are familiar with... we will i guess.. in a nutshell.. be away from "home". I was born not far from here and in all the places i have ever lived... for the first time.. ever... this place has felt like home.
While we like moving.. (most times) to see places that we have not seen before... for so long i wanted to live in Canberra and now.. here... we are having to move... i don't feel like i've been here long enough. i guess... because 2 years is NEVER long enough somewhere... well.. unless its Katherine, NT!
There are so many beautiful things here that we have said we would visit... take photos of etc... and now... with 2 1/2 weekends free... it looks like we will be running around, doing fly by tours of all those things and snapping away all crazy like... yep.. in the true form of a scrapper and her photographer.
can we do it? I have no doubt we can.
But.. on the lighter side of all that... we get to do christmas 3 times this year... who in their right mind would complain about that?!?
Now... all that said... im off to create create create... i have christmas presents to make... and who knows... i may even get motivated enough to make some cards instead of doing the cheats thing this year and buying them.
(haha. i can imagine a world of scrappers covering their ears at hearing that)
After thought: why is the dictionary on a mobile phone automatically set to dyslexic?
