Air, Sea, and Storage

Air,sea, and storage those have been the very important words lately. That is how I classify my stuff right now. Movers are almost finished.  Difficult it has been both pyshically and emotionally. Our house in MI is no longer a home it is just back to being a house, a shell of a place that was filled with lots of fun and laughter . Funny how you can take a place and fill it with your things add some people, lots of friends and family and now you have a home.  I walk through my house now and I can hear in my mind funny conversations, a few yells at the kids (of course Walters not mine ;), family dinners, lots of laughter, and just some great times. The roller coaster has begun. So many emotions. I think I am ready but those emotions can sneak up on you at any moment. You go to the gas station and something doesn't work and all of a sudden your eyes are full of tears and you could ball your head off. You ask why, I have no idea, sometimes it feels like I'm a pot ready to boil over with tears. 

Trying to fit it all in has been the theme for our final weeks. You want to see everyone, talk to everyone and do all the stuff we should have done with our kids since we moved here 3 years ago.  True friends come to the surface through it all. We have had some of the best times here in MI these last couple of weeks. 

Life is about to change drastically but again I like the feeling of testing my character.  Well sometimes, okay it depends on which character of mine I'm testing. ;). 

Lets hope I put enough stuff in my shipment which I know I DID NOT!  I had 1/3 of a container left. Had I had the mental telepathy of knowing this info I would have bought more stuff. Hahahaha  I have never shopped more in the last couple of weeks. I stocked up on stuff that Walter swears they use in Thailand. Really do they use Tide laundry detergent or SAMs toilet paper?  Come on this is important stuff 😉. When moving to another country it's funny how just normal everyday products that you usually don't give a thought about become really really important. To bad they won't let me pack beer then I definitely would have filled the damn container. Oh well, see you on the other side. 

Cheers
