Good Morning to Sunday, 31st, 5.11, they say 10dg with a high of 15dg, there is rain on the roof, but forecasting a clearing sky. Yesterday I had a phone call from a dear friend checking to see if all was well as I am not writing my daily posts just Poppet pic posts... so here I am back into giving you the daily dose of life in my shoes. My time since I left Wanaka has been just a blur of activity. A fabulous wedding in Christchurch, a memorable time with so many old and dear
friends, and then to Tauranga, Kati Kati where I have been for the last couple of weeks with my girls. The time here has been full gas from dawn till late as we juggle reorganising the house for the arrival of the furniture trucks from Wanaka. Jeez... what a mission, first I spend three weeks with my Mama downsizing her from a house full of her life to a small rest home room with a bookcase holding her precious bits, now I am helping to declutter, organise unwanted for sale, rejig rooms and help put order into this little home for the incoming furniture and the garage for the overflow. In amongst that, I am Moochie in charge of a precious 22 month old dynamo with a personality that can be challenging... as rising two year olds can be. I am very lucky to spend this time as Mel cancelled all day care while I am here so I can play with the Poppet while Mama is at work. My time here is now on countdown.. this week is going to have to be a finely tuned machine to get it all done. We hope the trucks arrive Wednesday, that gives us two days to sort the big stuff before we leave for Auckland on Friday. I have two nights in Auckland with my sister and brother I.L. and then it is onto the plane for Singapore Sunday 7th... heavens the time has disappeared so fast. I have one comment about travelling on a reduced wardrobe, and for me it is reduced... two pairs of shoes, three trousers, three shirts, three jerseys and some bits n bobs to work with everything and all interchangeable... Note to self...This is not the way to travel.. no choices, and every day one of the three selections to choose from. I like choices, I have decided I do not do minimal and it trashes the small selection of clothes.
