It's been some time now since I've blogged, but a lot of things have happened since my last blog. Most significate being, We now have permanent resident status in the U.K. We've traveled to Norway a couple of times this year, how the time flys. We've put an extension on our house and I've doubled the size of the conservatory. Plus, always a treat for us, the annual visit from our son and grandchildren, they left mom at home this year to study and work, her decision.

We're down to the wire on finishing before company arrives again from the states for their annual visit. We're going to Spain with them and a secret place we haven't told them about yet, so I won't mention it here.

We started our project in April, so we're not doing too bad, but would definately like to get it finished, over, and done with. We have to get ready for full retirement. Brenda's division has been sold and we're not sure what that means for us, as of yet. Should know by the end of the year, so they say.
