    Killing time...

    Here I am, sitting at my desk, a "small" large "Vecchia Romagna" Brandy and a double espresso, smoking a Hamlet cigar, but strangely no Bach's "Air on the G string" music in the background.

    Reading old and new posts, looking if I can be of help, because my main quest is over.
    And if I can share my experiences with the "newbies", all the better.

    We have got the Visa, the CFO sticker, the one-way ticket.

    Just waiting for Jet to get on that blessed plane and come over once and for all.

    Every day, is one day less to wait.
    Every day brings new fears, tho...
    Every day is a new experience.
    Every day I wonder if she is going to like it here in the UK.

    I tried to make the pad as welcoming as possible, worked and sweated like pit pony, until the wee hours to dust and clean, lay the new carpets, fix this and that, put some flat-pack furniture together, paint a few walls and ceilings, wallpaper some other walls.

    Tonight I am getting p****d for the first time in years.

    Jet will arrive at 6 pm, on Thursday evening and all of sudden I feel excitedly scared....

    I lived alone for over 9 years, more or less like a hermit.

    Now I have a wife, again, that depends fully on me.

    Will I be able to abandon the bad habits collected and nurtured over the years...?

    I Know i can. Just give me some time.

    I love this woman.

    Joe - just tell her that work dictates that you have to go on a course every day.

    (Just don't tell her it's a golf course!!)

    Still moping around, trying to keep busy and not to think too much.
    A little blessing in disguise is that I have to work, so with great difficulty I manage to prise myself from thinking about thursday and Jet's impending arrival...

    kind of going insane, but in a nice way....

    Didn't have a chance to chat with her this morning, she was busy getting another x-ray done, as the first one of last week was taken wrong.

    Missed her quite a lot.
    But looking ahead, it is only a couple more sleepless nights on my own.
    So far... so good...
