Neither are our lives, so I love your honesty. Hoping you are feeling back on track, and I'm terribly envious of your ability to retire in a few yesrs. (Rather than being on a sabbatical I'll have to work to pay for till I'm 65!)<br /><br />It will be hard seeing your parents move, but if I can say one thing, it is that they should do it sooner rather than later. My In-laws have talked about it for years, but never done it, and now simply packing up and leaving would be difficult, even though they've both had falls, and dealing with maintenance and garden is too much for them. And they won't accept that they can only stay ghere if they are prepared to get people in to help. Sigh.

So sorry for how difficult the 7th was (*hugs*)<br /><br />I'm glad your on track for retirement. I was pretty excited to see the royal baby, and Kate's dress was awesome, with the belly and all. Like you I'm also relieved the hype/media obsession will die down some. For now at least. It can be hard, and I'm in America so it probably wasn't anywhere near as covered as it might have been!<br /><br />The news story about the woman with PP depression... that is so sad :(AnotherDreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11487881766884178761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3178366214524455884.post-78805347959208231902013-08-11T23:20:27.056-04:002013-08-11T23:20:27.056-04:00Deep breath ... wishing you a reunion that is as s...Deep breath ... wishing you a reunion that is as stress-free as possible! People always end up trampling the garden anyway, so perhaps the premature death of your impatiens was their effort to avoid an inglorious demise later on. :(<br /><br />I'm sorry that the 7th was so difficult ... and wish that you could have had that day to tend to yourself, and to Katie, without the world intruding.Justine Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14190295175501659469noreply@blogger.com
