It has been pointed out to me by Master Z that I have been in OZ for almost four months and surprisingly life is still holding my gonads to ransom for an undisclosed price!
I have to admit that this week is one I am very glad to see the back of! We spent the vast majority of it at RNSH, then on Friday I randomly got called in for work – four hours of sorting mail, not an ideal way to spend time but hell, money is money and I owned that shiz! Fully efficient and personable I was.
After spending a couple of nights with my Aunty and getting to speak with my Mummy and my Poppa, we are now on the way to Mudgee, which will be home base for the next month or so and I am going to be working Tuesday to Thursday of next week in Liverpool so Mudgee will be a flying visit, mostly to drop stuff off.
Whilst chatting with Mummy Bear I realised that I have been between homes for almost six months and I got to admit, it is wearing pretty thin. I never really thought of myself as a homebody (which I know all my friends are probably rolling around the floor laughing at me for missing this self realisation for so long) but it is true that you never really know how much you value something until it’s gone and if home is where the heart is then how do you best look after it when you have no home?
Mmmn Home... I miss cooking in my kitchen, with a glass of wine in hand, waiting for one of the crew to come over, I miss being the hostess with the most-est... (food & wine is the key to being a great hostess if anyone is wondering), I miss making a mess – then cleaning it up, I miss having my own bed – with what some may call too many pillows, I miss my herb garden (that was always within six inches of a terrible death because I am a terrible gardener lol) and I miss blasting music the moment I step in the door.
Enough whining (lol – how many times in this post can I add “wine” let’s find out), although I do still miss all the amazing people I left in New Zealand, I am constantly amazed by their ability to share the love from across the ocean - I also love and value Miss T.H for her super-support this week (and her electric blanket – I am now converted – our new place will have one!) and I am still madly in love with Master Z, without his awesomness I would have packed my bags months ago and right about now I think we would be chilling at Library Bar with wine in hand talking about how to change the world – someone’s love-life – or goodness knows what else lol. *sigh, I also miss Library Bar – their wine list is amazing and I love chilling in their comfy seats waiting for Miss H, who was almost always late to our LB “meetings” on one such occasion I randomly picked up a management text book and used a quote from it in an assignment lol <3 multi-tasking at its best I would say.
So what are everyone else’s favourite things about home?
Without a doubt mine is the love and laughter shared during a Sunday Vino session.
Love always,
Miss R x
Wine count: 7 – not as many as expected lol
