The "For Sale" sign went up outside our house yesterday. Seeing it go up brought a lot of mixed emotions, sadness, anger, nervousness, excitement and a sort of relief.
My ex partner & I bought the house nearly 6 years ago. It was our second step up the property ladder & we were very happy & excited to move to this village as it is such a lovely place to live & to bring up children. The house wasn't "our dream home" but it was a good solid family house & was a step nearer to where we wanted to end up ie. a pretty country cottage.It is such a shame that those dreams are now broken, we where together for 10 years & I loved him very much. I am trying to turn a bad situation into a good one by thinking that it is another new chapter in my life & a fresh start. The main thing is I have my little men, they give me such joy ( & sometimes grief !!!! ) & we have a very close relationship.
Moving is not new to me, I have moved house 18 times in my life & lived in Canada for just over a year when I was 7. Even there my parents moved twice, Penticton & Kamloops which are in BC. My mum couldn't stand the cold winters so she & I came back I . My father still lives in Canada with my step mum & half brother & sister.
I hope I haven't been too depressing, & as the saying goes " what doesn't kill you makes you stronger".
Hello Tania
ReplyDeleteLovely to read through your blog...welcome to Blogland!
oooo I have been drooling over your yarn!!!! The Rowan Dk wool is scrumptious isn't it, how does it compare to the cascade? Is it softer? i always imagined the cascade to be quite woolly-scratchy, although not sure why??!
My first granny blanket was also made with patons dk..your squares look gorgeous btw.
Hope life continues on the up for you...
Love lucexxxxxxxxx
Hello Tania, I can imagine seeing the sign go up was a tough day for you. But I have a feeling that you will be just fine in time. You are a strong lady, with your little men and wonderful friends to help you through. Sending you hugs, Bertie x.
