Happy new year to everyone!

This year has been a little tough for me emotionally. Very glad to be home, but have struggled with some issues that have nothing to do with location. Am hoping for some more sunshine next year - not just for me, but for everyone here

Also want to wish my BE friends a Happy 2014. For me 2013 was full of emotional pulls and conflicting feelings and indecision. Hopefully 2014 brings about all our wishes of where we all want to be in our time of life. We hope to sell our house and start the planning of our move back "home".

Sent my USC wife into a minor panic attack last night when we got into bed. She said Happy New Year to me and I said it back to her, then added 'Only about 450 days until we move to the UK!' She was giggling... maniacally giggling

I can finally say it's happening next year, as we're moving back in Feb/March 2015!! Can't wait!!

Just wanted to say 'Happy New Years' to all on here and thank you for all being so supportive to me and all the others on here looking to get home... by hook or by crook. Take care everyone!! xox
