Well, three more days and counting.
For the past week I have been living like a squatter in my own home lol. No fridge freezer, no bed, no. My two youngest have flown the nest and my hubby is working straight through on long shifts.
All of my art stuff is already in our new home in Scotland and I am itching to be creative but will have to wait a few more days yet!
Thursday is the day when our new journey starts and we begin a new chapter in our lives. Thankfully we have a week off a non-working week so I will sort out all the stuff and make it home, THEN I will be getting out my creative stuff and making something, so I can scratch this itch!!!
So my next blog will be from Scotland, so until then
Be good, be creative and be happy

New chapter
Well, it is fair to say I am totally pants and keeping this blog up and going.
Life has started to change drastically for myself and my family. We live in Devon but have just bought a brand new caravan in Scotland and in 12 days time, we, being my husband and myself shall be moving up there to live...BUT we shall still be working in Devon. It all part of our 3-year plan!!
My dream is to give up work and be creative full time and after thinking about this for a very long time, it is finally started to become a realisation of doing it.
My kids have flown the nest, to start living their own lives and I honestly think, that if we had not made this decision, then they would still be living at home till we are 80 years old!!!
So right now I have just finished packing up my craft shed, which was way harder than I thought to do and have had to downsize our home drastically to fit in our new home.
I loved living in this house we have called home for the past 6 and half years but it really is time to say goodbye and start living life. We shall be working one week in Devon as Support workers, a job we so love doing and I also get to help out in the craft part of my job, so double bonus for me. I have done this job for the past 4 years and will be sad to give it up eventually but will cross that bridge when I come to it.
Although this what I am doing, the moving, the new chapter in our lives is something I want to do, I have found it very emotional doing it, much more than I ever realised, although I will still get to see my youngest two children on a regular basis, I forgot to mention, my eldest Daughter and 2 rather gorgeous Grandsons also live in Scotland, So for me I get to see all three of my children on a regular basis and on my week off, as work will be one week on and one week off, I shall get to carry on being creative and fulling my passion to be creative.
I think I may start using this a diary as it has made me feel a little better about my feelings.
So if you want to follow me on my journey, then you are more than welcome to follow me and I will pinky promise to try and document what is happening and how I feel as and when I can, and if memory serves me lol
Right now, this minute I am waiting for my Daughter from Scotland and Son in law to bring down a van to load up with a bulk of our belongings and more importantly my art stuff. Which means I can't do anything creative for the next two week :(
So adios amigos
