I'm back for last long hard grind.
I've moved. No more house of Cecil. I'm a lodger again for a while.
I've had a great holiday with Fabrice. My nephew is as cute as I expected and a strong little babe too and his big brother and sister are as high in energy and fun as ever and then some.
September's pay will see me pay off the final credit card and free of nasty debts. Until then I'm carrying on with overtime to make sure the process is as fast as possible.
In between shifts, the plan is to sort some of the things which are in some friends' garage and need selling. I didn't have the time or energy to put things up for sale properly so I've got a clutter of chests of drawers and beds and the like needing a home. If I were rich and famous I'd give them and be done. It's so tempting to just do that and not bother, but I need new reading glasses :)
I'm missing Fabrice both more and less than usual. The fact that I can soon move to France helps I think, yes it's good that I'm in the last lap of that race too. It's easier nowadays to be far away but it doesn't beat popping down the road together for a pint or a coffee. I'm looking forward to being able to do that without thinking I'll be back a world away within a few days. I'll be able to see my nephews and nieces grow and be part of their life regularly. :)
Iliana was 2 last Friday! I had to travel back the day before. No more of that.
There'll always be people I miss but it comes from being a whole lot of halves and can't be avoided.
I'm re-reading 'The Money Secret'. I don't often re-read books so soon but it was awesome and still is. It could do with being spread as wide as the Bible in this debt-ridden western society of ours. I wanted to refresh it's truths in my mind. Renewing our mind... Essential!! Absolutely essential. Thank you EA, Rob Parsons and Care for the Family.
