So grateful to Alan, David, Geoff, Jamie, Rick and Jon. We finally returned the rental van to Dorset on Thursday lunchtime, getting back here in the Skoda at 6:30pm
We are taking things very slowly - no need to rush with unpacking. And unlike other moves, no rush to start a new job, or get to know the place.
We are mostly just resting, and enjoying the peace and beauty... I had some amazingly colourful flowers from Steph, Gaz and George for my birthday
Plus loads of cards, emails, phone calls etc. wishing us well as we start the New Adventure
Everyone has been SO kind.
Thank you all
...and breath! Well done on all you have achieved. Praying that you now enjoy time for each other and your family. May you continue to be blessed and a blessing to others. Enjoy your retirement and your own place.
ReplyDeleteThanks Pauline (I'm sorry, Blogger won't let me change the comment as you asked! I share your frustration at being unable to correct typos after you click 'publish') We are definitely taking it slowly for a few days, the sun is shining and the sky is blue, and the Norfolk countryside is gorgeous!
DeleteAll good wishes for your retirement and please do have a good rest. Even with help your move must have been exhausting. I have enjoyed reading your previous moving stories.
ReplyDeleteThank you Pam. It is surprising how rested we feel after just a few nights back on our 'decent' mattress!
DeleteSo glad you've made it. I don't know how you've managed to keep writing your blog through this. I'm praying we don't ever move. Weve been in our home since 97 and clearing out that would be a massive task.
ReplyDeleteStart decluttering NOW. I've hardly opened any boxes and have started saying "why did we bring this?"
DeleteHooray for your safe arrival.
ReplyDeletePraying that you're safely rehomed soon too
DeleteYou must be so glad to be all moved in! Take your time unpacking and putting away. Enjoy your retirement and here's to a bright new beginning!
ReplyDeleteSo exciting! God be with you!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet it is!
ReplyDeleteBob looks so comfy in his chair but that bookcase is yearning for books and pretty things to go on its shelves. All in good time, of course!
Hugs!
Happy you are finally off the road for a while and all your things are in one place--even if you don't know which box things are in at the moment. Congrats.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you got it all done! Hurrah and well done! Those flowers are astonishingly colourful!
ReplyDeleteAmazing how a good night's sleep on your regular bed makes all the difference! It was so nice to chat to you as you had almost arrived the other day!
I really enjoyed the moving stories. Xx
Thank you for calling Kezzie, a lovely surprise to be able chat as we drove up the A11!
