My families adventure on the road to oz via Germany

Looking through my window

Today as i did my washing up at the kitchen sink, i looked in dismay at the frosty grass and people walking past all huddled up looking miserable the odd robin at the bird feeder and a couple of magpies, i started day dreaming of my trip to Albury. I remembered washing the pots for V's aunt, the pure joy of seeing rainbow lorrikets and king parrots playing in the garden by the bird feeder. the odd kangeroo in the distance hopping by. I started to feel all cosy, and warm again. I know we have a while till we finally go to oz but in my heart that is where i belong. I know it wont be all sunshine and happiness. But having had that feel of contentment for a brief 2 weeks i know we wil make oz our home.

We just need to get Germany out of the way then we can be there.

I had a visitor today who hasn't seen me since before the trip to oz. When i was telling her how much we had enjoyed ourselves and how much we want to be there, she told me to go for it. Not to worry about leaving family behind as it is our lives, we dont need their approval to be happy.For so long i have been the dutiful daughter who always helps everyone. But i never recieve the same back. So from no on it is my own family that is important to me. Their happiness is what i strive to get.

Who knows what i will see out of my windows when i move to Germany but for my now my wonderful memories of being in oz will keep me going till i finally get to where i want to be.
