t minus 7

Here I am sitting in my favorite workspace, one of the roomy tables at the Refinery Cafe. Sipping a killer mango/passion fruit smoothie and thinking about our next week. It is one of sweet/sour, good/bad, up/down, I think you get the picture. We've been saying goodbye to people for quite some time and this week is certainly no different as the countdown is getting extremely close to lift off. It has been a fab summer seeing so many people, many old friends from my home area of Elmira, of course hanging out with my Dad and Mom (we will miss you, but c ya in December), seeing numerous people around here (Birky's, Goods, Hop and Cindy come to mind) , friends in Manitoba (what a great place to holiday) and our community here in Goshen. Our humble abode is in disarray, boxes here, bags there, piles piled and books unshelved (word?), it is a work in progress but it's coming along. Two bags each for a transcontinental move is not much, we are having to be picky and choosy. Out of the goods I want to take I'm afraid ther'll (contraction for there will or at least it should be one) be a forlorn box of :stuff that didn't quite make the cut this time, but probably will be tossed in the luggage on another visit" That's pretty much where we're at, seeing people, eating out to the tune of at least once a day so that we can connect it's not about the food I tell you, boxing stuff up, Goodwilling (word?) anything and everything. I'll give ya'll an update if there is any other breaking news from our process this week. later
