A quick tidy…
…sans photos, I’m afraid.
So, where are we at the moment? In the US, at least for the next week. Kiddies and I need to return to Dublin to pack up, finish school, say our farewells, which is the crappity part of this whole transition. Final departure from Ireland happens mid-June.
Right then, during the next month or so, posts might be here, there or anywhere, as time and energy allow.
Because of dodgy internet connections, I can’t respond individually to the very lovely comments that have been left. But thanks so much for a warm and hearty welcome back to the US. Have to confess that culture shock (of the reverse kind) is creeping in. But, all will be well as soon as I get into a knitting group and crank up the needles again. Ahhh!
Okay, just one picture to remind me of the Dublin mountains before we left for our quick US trip…local free range sheep in the back garden.
My daughter, who lived in Germany for three years (until a year ago), is about to move back to Europe (northern England). I’m old enough that I well remember pre-internet days, and pre-affordable international long distance calls (or even affordable national calls). Knowing she’ll be so far away does have it’s concerns (for me), but being able to so easily ‘connect’ with those on other continents sure makes the transition simpler for not only those making the moves, but also for those being left behind, whichever side of the ocean ‘behind’ happens to be.
I wish you the best in YOUR transition!

I am wishing you an easy transition. You have a busy few weeks ahead of you. I am looking forward to your account of the move a settling into your new home.
Have a wonderful weekend.
