Skies here, skies there
Today we looked at the latest batch of emailed photographs of flats we might end up inhabiting in less than a month.
Based upon the pictures, we aren’t holding our breath for a bedroom sunset view like the one we’re losing. But other gains should outweigh this loss. I am going to miss Adam’s plea, though: Papa, pick me up and show me EET-UH-LEE. Doubt we’ll be able to make out Romania, Turkey, Greece, Serbia, or the FYROM from our window.
Today was my last day at the place I have known (if not always accurately) as ‘work’ for the last six and a half years.
If nothing else, “EET-UH-LEE” has some mighty gorgeous cloud formations.

Wow. To all of it.

Beautiful.

Six and a half years, man? I can hardly bear to think of it. Why didn’t you just offer them your vital organs and be done with it?

I hadn’t realised you’d been there that long. Plans for a big leaving party?

Congratulations on making it through all their BS alive and still relatively sane, and we lift our glasses here in a toast to your new life. All of you. Safe traveling and love.

Yupâ��that’s most definitely, officially, a long time. High school or college and half. And the beginning of the family. A whole shebang, that is now a part of you.
Godspeed, and looking forward to visiting you in your new home.
(Home is home wherever, BTW. Bloom wherever you transplant yourselves.)
