Blogging Again - moving forward

So much has happened since I last wrote an entry that where to start this entry today is proving a little challenging.
I am moving in the next few weeks or months to Nottingham. I will be leaving Suffolk after living here from the age of 11 when I arrived with my parents in the seventies. Ipswich looked all so different then, maybe a little grotty around the edges with the docks consisting of many very old run-down buildings, not like it is today a vibrant hub around a picturesque marina.
First I lived in Stowupland, then after becoming divorced, I lived in One House, Stowmarket, Old Newton and Haughley before moving to Combs in 2011. I know a lot about mid-Suffolk and it is a very beautiful area but my travelling feet have been walking in my mind for some years now. I need my life to be simplified and I also need to be nearer my family. I am ditching the mortgage and other unwanted obligations to streamline my life and make room for more dancing, more travel and family BBQs. I'm looking forward to the change and I'm looking forward to the Trent - I love rivers and I'm pleased that I will be able to take Barney along the banks of this majestic river for long walks. There are sad parts and there are happy parts but generally, it feels right in the heart which is the place where dreams are made.
As things stand at the moment, I am really busy with readings, therapy and temping plus Airbnb. It feels as if all my chickens have come home to roost in a good way and I'm not sure how to get things done with so much pending!! I'm sure that many of you can relate to this!
Organise, organise, organise is what I'm hearing at the moment and don't forget to put it in my diary - where would we be without them but always leave room for spontaneity because that truly is the spice of life!
