We are moving to Charters Towers

OK so you say.. we know that. But this week the reality set in. My Husband, my best friend (my bff), my lover and everything left. Yep he has left paradise here in Ballina and started our new life in Charters Towers..but I am still here and feeling very down.

yep thats us...

He flew out at 8.45am yesterday morning and I have about 33 days till i see him again..how will I do it. Last night was the longest night ever.
WE left home Thursday afternoon..He had 2 suitcases (in excess of 27 kilos) a backpack and laptop (these 2 exceeded 10 kilos ) what was that you said carry on is supposed to be 7 kilos..Yep!! add to the back pack 5 new shirts for work we purchased at Carindale and I am guessing it was way over 11 kilos.. I kept saying.."just don't let them "look" heavy...Light as a feather..
Lara and Howie great friends made the big trip from the nirth side of Brissy to say hi and bye for 30 mins at Maccas at Capalaba..complete with all 3 children. Alan felt very special.
Then it was on to Clarey and Shanes for the night. Clare had excelled and come home at 6 and whipped up her famous (or was that infamous) potato bake..

and some yummy lamb chops and even yummyier salad. We had a great night and Clare and Shane excell as hosts.

Then it was up at sparrows (Clareys normal getting up time) and off to the airport.

So we got to the airport..and Alan had to pay excess baggage and then he carefully carried his enormous bags through security and they looked "light as a feather"

we had breaky and all to soon the announcement to commence boarding came..I was so sad..He was gone. My buddy was gone. not coming back..instead I had to drive home (with about 6 hours of retail therapy)

and organise a whole lot of stuff..I was exhausted by the time I got home. Miss Molly was stoked to see me..the saddest thibg was her looking for Alan..:-(

Slept badly last night and I keep thinking he isn't coming back..I have to work for 3 more weeks then hang around for a week till Clareys party then drive to meet him. I saw his towel hanging on the bath rail this morning..it doesn't need to be there. O my gosh can only begin to imagine if your husband/wife dies..

OK so will keep everyone posted on my progress..I still have a car to sell, a bike to sell, about 2 rooms of rubbish to get rid of..organise renting the house, hold another garage sale, organise removalists and so much more...HHHEELLPPP!!!!
