Like Sands through the hourglass, so is the time going by for my holiday...................

Well can you believe it, it is nearly here the journey of a lifetime thats right we are going overseas for a whole 3 weeks traveling Europe and finishing with four days in London. I have been counting down since 10months ago and now it it is 3 days away. Have just had a farewell dinner with my Brendan(son) and his partner Carmen and their gorgeous baby Armani, who at 6 months has decided it is much better to crawl than learn to sit. She has this very determined look on her face whenever she is trying to do something, just what I need is another determined child.

The quilting is all up to date, and already there are quilts waiting for me to return, which is a good thing. Evelyn has been waiting for over 12 months for her quilt but I can say it is finished, and what a feeling that is. 

With all the jobs now out of the way, I have decided to think about what to take............what does one actually take when one goes overseas????????? With no means of washing for 3 weeks, it is going to be mix and match all the way.......that goes with this and this goes with that. As for darling husband we have tried for several weekends to drive into Rockhapmton, a good 3 hour drive to try and get some clothes for him, but to no avail could we work it. So he is just using clothes from wardrobe and picking the rest up in Brisbane on Saturday.....DFO here we come.
