           It’s unbelievable that it has already been two weeks that Hubby and I are in Oxfordshire, England! It has taken us three months to prepare the move…to pack our belongings, post them one or two boxes at at time and to pack our suitcases painstaikenly.   The settling in has gone smoothly and I am adjusting perfectly here.  Of course I am still missing my immediate family and friends, yet I am happy here and am not particularly missing my hometown. My town was getting a bit too rough lately.  There was an influx of rowdy people and a mayority of Hispanic and South American,  mostly of Dominican descent.

         Today has been a quiet day.  I cleaned the oven and the kitchen and then settled myself on the table to have a cup of tea and a Fig Nuiton biscuit and read a magazine.  Hubby and I went to Boots Pharmacy where I got myself a mini manicure set, a bottle of pink nail polish and I set out to give myself a nice manicure.
