WhooHoo, I'm finally here!
« on: June 24, 2003, 04:56:30 PM »
Today I was finally was able to complete my move!!  I flew in this morning.  My sweetie met me at the airport with a bouquet of flowers (he is the best)!  I'm now sitting in my living room in Tonbridge with the windows open enjoying the day!  I can't believe that after all this time and obstacles we've encountered, I'm finally here in my home with my FH - exactly where I want to be!!!  Life is very, very good!

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Life should NOT be a journey to the
grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well
preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand,
wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and
screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

I'll add my own happy wishes for you and yours in England.  Congratulations.  Can I add that I'm just a tad jealous too.  I wish it were me! Happiness always.  Sounds like you had a wonderful day to enjoy completely.  The flowers were a lovely touch as well.

Congrats...now remember these pointers:

* buy an umbrella
* dont correct people who use different words in the British lexicon
* get used to carrying lots of pound coins in your purse
* better like drinking plenty of alcohol - your social life depends on it

got more, but i'll leave it short and sweet
