SL Friends…
I'm having a clear out of my SL friends list, everyone I've not spoken to for a while / don't remember. If I remove you and you still want to be friends, please just IM me. Trinity Dejavu
The Never Ending Clean
First up, let me appologise for not blogging since I got back to England. My heart hasn't been in it. I want to be back with Miya & Sarah more than anything in the world and I can't. It does't get any easier.
I've been staying with friends for the last week, they have a baby on the way and need some help to get the house in order, photos alone fail to convey the state of the place. Weve finally got the kitchen sorted, scrubbed top to bottom and resembing somewhere food can be cooked! Been working in the downstairs office and bedroom for a few days now but its very slow going, there is so much stuff everywhere!
AJen has been having some quite strong practice contractions and her hips keep popping out so she can't walk. Doctors said everything is all ok, but it looks like the baby will be born sooner than expected. Aside from that she is doing well, were getting the flashbacks under control and she's happy in herself most of the time now.
Goodbye Inkland .. Hello Amelica!

I'm writing this on the plane with miya looking over my shoulder, she's board (lawl), so please excuse a lower than normal amount of spelling mistakes, grammatical gaffs and general dyslexia.
After a few hectic days of packing and giving things away, the last 31 years of my life has been reduced to two suitcases, a laptop bag and a couple of boxes in my parents loft (mostly books). It has been heart wrenching at times to have to go through everything and decide what I would keep and what was sold or given away. To give an idea of the volume of stuff to go through; I was living in a 3 bedroom house, chock full of all the things you would expect. Of everything I will miss my kitchen and sofa the most.
Leaving the place I've called home for the last five years wasn't as hard as I had feared, maybe it hasn't sunk in yet. The people I loved there is another matter. Every room in that house has so many memories of us all living together, a constant reminder of days passed. Many times I've found myself lurching from room to room breaking my heart as the memories come flooding back. Being with my wife, the sound of Zoe playing, decorating with Daizy. Staying in that house for so long after everyone moved on has made their parting so much harder.
I love you all so much, not being near you is the hardest thing I have ever done. But I need to stop crying over what has passed and relearn to look forward.
We arrived at Manchester at 7am, a whole hour ahead of when we needed to be here due to problems getting a later taxi, then we find out our plane was delayed. Fast forward 5 hours and we finally got going an in the air. The flight has been uneventful so far (crosses fingers), the staff are nice and the meal was ok, soft and mushy, but good. The entertainment is dire, shared video screens that turn everyone a healthy umpa-lumpa orange, more static than sound over the headphones and no chance of sleeping. Ah well, could be worse.
We land in Atlanta in a few hours time, then some waiting, then another four hours in the air to Phoenix and I only have an hour of battery life left. Sigh, hopefully I can find some power and wifi when we land.
To be continued....
