    My bags are packed and I'm on my way

    Hi, Been some time since I last posted but I've been busy tying up things here and making wedding plans. My house is empty and the council can have it back because on Sunday I am returning to the Phils to marry my fiance in the spring. My worldly goods are in balikbayan boxes winging there way accross the sea's to my new home in the Phils. It's been a long hard slog with all the red tape but we have finally got there,(I hope). Thanks for all the advice and well wishes in the forums and I hope all goes well for everyone else. Look me up in Bago Oshiro if your ever there.
    Byeeeeeeeeeee.

    Hello, Keith! May I please ask who did you use as a carrier of your balikbayan boxes to the Phils.? We were searching but I guess it's best with anyone's recommendation. I'm from Toril, that is not far from Bago Oshiro, we might be able to see you in the future when we finally go back and settle there. Best wishes to your wedding!

    I will hold you to that later in the year Very rocky road magnolia Be lucky and enjoy the start of a new chapter in your personal story



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.
