We learned just last night that we’ll be moving back to the States a bit earlier than we’d originally planned; the first week of January rather than the first week of April. I’m so pleased. It will be wonderful to be back with my kids, my siblings, my mom and especially my grandson. It will be nice to return to the land of ubiquitous public rest rooms, wide straight roads and free parking lots. But there are several things about England I’ll be sorry to leave. I’ll miss the year-round green trees and green grass. I’ll miss being called, “Love” by nearly everyone I meet. I’ll miss seeing a price tag on an item in the store and handing exactly that amount to the cashier. Most of all I’ll miss the friends I’ve made here, especially the ones I quilt with one Thursday a month.
