A Brief Hiatus from the Blogosphere

Happy
...and here I am.  Back.  Did you even notice I hadn`t been here?

We`ve moved house but with Maroc Telecom on strike (is the whole world on strike?) and so no telephone, no internet connection, a flat mobile phone and a mis-packed charger I`m been living in the real world.

Let me sum up the last few days. Extreme heat.  Dust storms.  Strikes. Hot and bothered.  Flu. Lying prostrate. Chilled water. Litres and litres of chilled water. Family. Happiness. Grumpiness. Frustration. Wanting to go back.  Wanting to go forward. Feeling better. Full boxes.  Empty boxes.  Boxes you never want to look in.  Things you are happy to find. Dirty. Dusty. Clean. Organized. Happy. Relieved.

Having just moved house, we`re off on holiday this weekend for a couple of weeks and so who knows when I`ll be back but I`ll be in touch and will send you a postcard...virtually...somehow.

Oh bless, that is a great post. So well worded that you get the stress of moving, and the eventual satisfaction, all across with a few descriptive words. Go on holiday - but remember to come back to us. We have missed you!

I missed you. I thought you were already on holiday. So sorry you were sick. Your little man looks like he grew a foot since your last post! Have a wonderful holiday.

OF COURSE we noticed!!
Sorry about the flu - probably the last thing you needed - but glad you're settled and I'm sure you'll thoroughly enjoy a well-earned holiday. Come back soon!
