Belated goodbye, house

I know we have said this already this week, but moving house really is hard to do. Apart from the cleaning and packing and all the boring stuff, there is also the sentimentality.

Last time I moved house properly was about a year ago. Baby was only 2 months old and I was still very much in a post-labour/shit i have a baby now fog. It meant the whole moving experience was both more and less painful than usual. Thanks fog. If I had been a bit more clear headed I am sure I would have felt a lot more sentimental. As it was I just felt foggy.

We lived in that house for about 3 years. And it was a really great house.


It had three big bedrooms, two living spaces, a good back yard. We had many happy years there, many happy times, and some good parties.


It was where Baby first came home to. If I had the presence of mind to get emotional during that move, I sure would have.

Thank god I was in that fog. Oh no. I promised myself I wouldn't cry.
