Sorry for the delay in updating - we've had a hectic time. At lunchtime on Thursday 9th May, Urszula was whisked off as an emergency to Heatherwood Hospital in Ascot for a "minor breast operation". (She has not been too good since, but is well on the way to recovery now).
Suddenly, it all comes to a head? Life is too short to wait for the things you want, to come to you - Make it happen NOW!
Deborah has been in Thailand for six weeks - with Emma, Singapore next stop - to meet up with the third of the 'terrible trio', Miriam - Ula spoke to Deb's recently, it is very clear she is never going to "come home" so we no longer need to "have a home" to come back to?
Whilst Ula was in hospital (and since), we have carried on clearing and cleaning and.... Today the house was valued (pleasant surprise) with; as best a guarantee as an Estate Agent can give, that they can sell within EIGHT WEEKS!
Tonight I arrived home from work to find a FOR SALE sign outside. This really is IT. We are, as I have put it before - jumping off the cliff.
After leaving hospital, Ula was desperately trying to get well enough for a pre-arranged holiday in Holland at Floriade, the world horticultural exhibition in the Netherlands - held only once in every ten years. She went with the gang from the "Primrose Club" - A group of friends who had kept together after doing an evening class in gardening (The Evening Primrose Club?). One of the member's; whose Wife had died a while back from breast cancer, had obviously had a long and serious talk with Urszula, as she returned, not only refreshed from the holiday - which was very good in itself - but with a much renewed vigour for making our plans happen now.
We might just have to take Kahawi off the market? If we sell the house that quick, we've nowhere to live - Great isn't it! Are we mad, or what?
