my grandson moved on the weekend… he went from one apartment to another…

it reminded me of our move from our only apartment to our house… moving into the apartment had been an easier time as we were both coming from our parents’ homes and all of the furniture was delivered directly from the stores..

when we left the apartment, we didn’t have that much stuff and had friends to help us with the big things…

we arrived at the house eagerly around 9 am and discovered the elderly couple having tea at the kitchen table… they didn’t appear to be packed and may have forgotten they were leaving that day… yikes, it made for a stressful morning as we waited at the basically empty apartment, hoping they were going to be out in time for us to get in…

we had to be out of the apartment at the end of the day, so it did feel as though the clock was ticking…

when we turned up again at 3 pm they were gone and the house was empty…what a relief…

I have not moved since then… now there is a lot of stuff, lol…

ticking…

big girl pants, blessings, clock, New Year's, ticking

while the kids were here the grandfather clock was stopped…

they found the sound disturbing, particularly during the night…

I have lived with it for so long that I don’t even hear it, unless it isn’t going…

this morning I got it ringing again… sounds like an old friend is back…

makes me think of the clock ticking down to New Year’s…

kids in Ottawa are having friends over… kids here have gone to some friends…

I am home thinking of the past year and looking forward to the next one…

blessings to you and yours as this New Year arrives…
