Seoulful family

We are all together, and in our new home. It is three am, so I should be in bed, but my body thinks it is invincible. Plus the kitties seem to have a bunch of things they need to tell me, so I'm petting them while they discuss life.

I'm Home

On the day I went away... goodbye...
Was all I had to say... now I...
I want to come again and stay... Oh my my...
Smile, and that will mean that I may

Cause I've seen blue skies, through the tears
In my eyes
And I realize.. I'm going home.

Everywhere it's been the same... feeling...
Like I'm outside in the rain... wheeling...
Free, to try and find a game... dealing...
Cards for sorrow, cards for pain

Cause I've seen blue skies through the tears
In my eyes
And I realize.. I'm going home.

I'm going home, I'm going home.

"I'm Going Home" from the Rocky Horror Picture Show.

This song has been recorded by one of my favorite artists, Willie K. It is a great version, and the song is perfect for my mood right now.


No pictures yet. I've misplaced the connector for my camera. I'll have it sorted by this evening, though, so pictures will be here soon.

Tchus!

That's it, we're done. The boy and I are in an overpriced hotel room at the airport. I'm about to shower and then slip in bed for a few wonderful hours before we head out.

I've slept for 5 mostly consecutive hours in the past two days. I have Clorox Cleanup seeping out of my pores. I am surviving on coffee and thoughts of Hawaii.

Hawaii

Hawaii.....

9 hours until we fly, then 23 hors of travel and I will breathe in the air of Hawaii. All of this will have been worthwhile. Hawaii

Ok, I'm off to slug down another cup of coffee so I don't fall asleep in the shower.

Happy 4th, everyone

Have you seen the remote control?

I swear it was here a moment ago!

So two days ago I started to pack the coffee pot. I wanted to be sure that it would go all in one box, nice and clean. I put all of the small pieces through he dishwasher, placed them in the dishrack to dry, and gathered the coffee, cups, and other things that would all go in the box. Finally I placed the machine inside it's protective cardboard nest and sealed everything tight. I unrolled the kraft paper, gathered my tape, and lay the box on it's side so I could finish packing.

Then I picked up the box, got a towel, pulled everything apart and let it all dry for a day. I had managed to leave the water resevoir full.

That's just the state of my life right now. Careful planning is great, but only gets me so far. Eventually reality comes back and smacks mr around, daring me to toss my hands in the air and call it a night.

Not tonight! Not for another 10 days!! I can do this....really.
