I Am Leaving On A Jet Plane............





Don't know when I will be back again! Yep that is right...it is time for me to leave Australia for good. We have our interview on Tuesday April 6th at the US Consulate in Sydney & Australia Post willing we will be leaving on Saturday 10th April 2010. I am beyond excited at this point! Time for us all to be happy & loved.

I have spent some well needed time with some amazing friends before I leave. I was asked to organise a farewell dinner & to let people know the date & time etc...well I did this & the 'friends' never replied so I decided that the real friends would make the effort to catch up with me before I left. Kinda sad to me that I have been in Sydney for 7 months & not one person has bothered to catch up at all! People who when they found out I was moving to Sydney and wanted to catch up never responded to emails etc. People have driven past quite a lot & never dropped a line to say ' hey lets have a coffee!!' So it has all contributed to feeling very lonely & abandoned by people who claimed to be friends *end of rant*

I caught up with my gorgeous best friend Fran last weekend & spent 2 laugh filled days with her, her wonderful man & kidlets. Leaving on Sunday tore my heart in two as this woman has been by my side through every major life event in the last 12 years. We have watched each others children grow up, supported each other through relationship dramas, major life changing events & now finally both of us finding the one man on this planet who completes us. I will miss her desperately when I leave but next year Dave & Fran will look at travelling to Ohio to Eric & I for their honeymoon....that will be awesome.

We have also been spending some time with the kids Godmother Lynne & her beautiful daughter Erin down in Wollongong....that has been wonderful!

Anyway, I guess this is my last post from Australia -- I will post once I get to my new home in Ohio for those interested.

Who knows one day I may even find the urge to scrap again once I am settled there.
