Back to U.S. and Relocating

引っ越し終了!
約2年のイギリス生活を終えて、アメリカに帰国しました。そして今度はアメリカ南西部から、深南部へ。偶然にも義妹家族の住む街へ。
家財道具一式は空輸され(いつ届くのかは不明)、オットのトラックは船便で来月到着予定。
とりあえずは家具付きの社宅アパートに入居したのでテレビとかソファーとか掃除機とか食器とかなんでもそろってて便利です。でもこのアパートにいられるのも1か月か最大2か月なので、近々また引っ越しなのねぇ(泣)
スーパーに買い物に行って、品物の多さに「あぁ、アメリカに帰ってきたわ」と思いました。


We have moved; out of the U.K., back to the U.S.
Our household goods were taken away last week and should be on their way to us via air (though I don't even know when they are coming). For now, we are living off what we stuffed in the suitcases.


MOTH's truck was also taken away last week to be transported to Southampton via ground, then to South Carolina via sea. This, buying a Land Rover Defender and shipping it back to the U.S., had been his plan all along even before we moved to U.K. so there was no stopping even when the shipping charge was three times more than he expected.


Not only have we moved back to the U.S., but we have also relocated at the same time. We left Southwest for good (or at least for now) and now we are in Deep South. We still have 2 storage units full of stuff (including MOTH's truck that he absolutely refuses to get rid of) that we left in Southwest 2 years ago that need to be moved 1,600 miles over here, but that is for another day. Right now, I don't even want to think about moving. Fortunately, we got a furnished corporate apartment so moving in here was not too bad. But this is only temporary so we have to move AGAIN eventually, in a very near future, like next month or two.


There were so much inconvenience and impracticality in England, but I definitely miss the greenery. No more breathtakingly beautiful morning walks. Good bye, England, I had a lot of fun.
