Oh My Gosh.....I've just realised I need to pack my house up....its just hit me like a bus, that soon I will be homeless!! What a terrible thought...well not really homeless we'll be living at 303 Royal Parade...but even so I'm going to miss my house.

And how do I decide what to keep, throw out or sell on ebay.....I love ebay, just getting right off the track for a moment....

This is my home...its where friends and family have gathered for parties, suppers, bible studies and so many more events....its where we've celebrated NYE for the last 6 years....I think it was the pool which was the main attraction....

But soon all this will be a memory...as we move into our new lifestyle....

When I look around my home I see so many things that have shaped my life....my scrapbooking, our photos, cards from friends, my music and CD's....its where Paul and I decided to follow God's calling to Training College....

But in all of this....its just bricks and mortar...I will always have the memories and no one can take those from me.....and we will always have a home that will be filled with love and happiness...so when I think about it, this is just another chapter in our book of life....this chapter has been filled with happy times and sad times, but in all its a chapter where God has been present and evident in all that we do....

So...the day will come when the sign will go up out the front of our home and soon it will become someone elses home....to be filled with many memories, I can only pray that they will enjoy it as much as we have done....God has blessed us in so many ways...even in this lesson he is teaching me many things....

A house will always be a home if its filled with love....so I'm looking forward to our new home...wherever that may be.....
