Home is.....

I need to make some decisions.  I love my little house but I have never really made it my home. I've been here 11 months and haven't really moved forward.  I'm still paying for two houses and  still have half my life in Yorkshire at my old house.

I have choices, and have options - people I love and who love me have asked me to move in - but it feels scary.  Here I am comfortable, I am close to work, in my home town and have my space; I rarely feel lonely and enjoy being here.

But I could save significant amounts of money moving out - and that would make life a lot easier.....a lot easier.

I need to see what happens in the next few weeks and months but I need to make some decisions.

Getting something I wanted

Earlier this year I blogged about things I wanted and well I didnt get the exact shoes I got some similar what I did get last week was a tattoo.  The pics aren't great and I will paste better ones but for now here she is:

Singapore Orchids

When I went to Singapore for CP & JP's wedding I spent a few hours in the botanical gardens the next day (which is where they got married) - the orchid garden was worth the ticket and was beautiful:

Flying Away

Next weekend I head away for the month, I'm both excited and scared by this.  I'm traveling with/for work and will be in Boston, Sao Paulo & Philadelphia.  In between I will visit Provincetown, have my tattoo in West Chester and hopefully get to either New York or Washington.

My concern at the moment is packing - I need to pack for a month.  For work and play, casual, smart, dressy, relaxed; the whole kit and kaboodle.

But of course, in my usual trying to fit it all in I have booked myself to do far too much between now and my leaving.  Something's going to have to give......unfortunately it looks like it may have to be my social life which sucks.

Think I better make a list, or two and get packing planning...

What if?

The one that left came back - will the confused mist clear and the answer be there?

How late is too late - or when is just in time?

Poorly Sick
