As this move which consists of 1763km or 1095miles half-way across this vast country of ours edges closer, the inevitable "goodbyes" have begun. I'm not one for fuss, much preferring to slip away quietly with a quick "see you later."
But even those are hard.
Today my heart ached as I sat at my dear friend Sally's kitchen table for the final time for goodness knows how long. Sally and I may be women of different generations, but the similarities in our philosophies about being homemakers, living simply and frugality are oh so similar. She gently teases me for being a "funny old thing" who is just like her, which I take as the highest compliment.
