It’s another of those times where we have to pack up yet again and move to another location another place where the air is sweeter the sun is warmer, in our case the waters are sweeter across the street where we move to a house exactly like the one we currently occupy the only difference being that it has more windows. So we started off today (after a morning of English course work at collage) ferrying cleaning equipment across the street. Me in my summer shorts and vacuum cleaner in hand ready to start warming up to our new house. Well it wasn’t an easy task scrubbing toilets, the kitchen and mopping floors but we managed before sunset and had a good time doing it. The only problem being that it reeked of cigarette smoke which really bugged us all of us being non-smokers. Hopefully the repeated deodorising that we did on the carpets will rid us of the scent. Apart from that we had a great time making jokes and listening to music as we got on with hard manual labour under the watchful eye of the lioness that is my mother.
Now am back home packing up my clothes in garbage bags (I never realised how much I had until now that am filling one garbage bag after the other). As much I would like to help with the moving tomorrow, (no I would not) I have a chemistry class early in the morning! Now I have to contend with not being able to say goodbye to the house that has been my home for the past year and just when I started to warm up to it....
Well change is a new canvas for fresher colours and I grab my paint brush ready to splash ever dull moment to come with a splash of brilliance....... SYKE.... am hoping so at least, by God’s grace.
Peace, poetry, prosperity and splashing.....
