So, we went to kingdom university even though I was bone tired and reallz reallz sick. I had been sick since fridaz last week, sick as in fever, coughing fits, runnz nose, stuffy nose...the full monty. And no it wasn't Swine flu it was simply a November cold. Which hasn"t past yet. Well, we went anzways and it was glorious. I had been pretty blazee about the entire moving thingy, having been way to bust actually doing all of it for thinking about what was going to happen. Then I fell ill and missed everything about the actual packing up. I haven"t even seen my empty old apartment. Well, I got somewhat better over the week, but at Kingdom University I was still so sick ,that I left class ealy and got a nap (which I never do during daytime, I cannot fall asleep at night, but I figured that wasn't such a bad thing at my last HUrrah at Drachenwald) When we were called before their majesties to receive our PCB tokens I suddenly found myself sobbing uncontrollably. I couldn't stop during the whole affair and the crying went on for some time after the ceremony. I will miss these folk so incredibly. It was the first group that I really felt at home in. I had friends in all kinds of subgroups and I love each and everyone one of them even though some cannot stand each other. NOt that I understand that, but hey it is a free country ;)

So I got to bed around 11 p.m. knowing that I was going to drive the biggest stretch to Frankfurt airport (some 5oo km away from the site) starting at 4 a.m. We had rented a lovelz car which not only could hold all of our luggage, but it had a powerfull engine, and I would have burned some good bye rubber on our Autobahn system if it hadn't been for almost constant construction on literally ALL of the ones I needed to use. Still I have to recommend driving on Sunday mornings between 4 and 7 a.m. You are utterlz alone on the streets and thus it took us indeed the 4 1/2 hours the Sat Nav had estimated to get to Frankfurt airport, which got us there around 8.30. Since our flight left at 1 a.m. that was a tad early but we hung out in the seriously overflowing Business lounge until 11 I think (and mind you all that security checking etc took up quite some time. We boarded at 12 which was a problem, since we didn't get us lunch before and then the lunch serving on the plane got delayed by jet stream involvement ;) BUt they delayed just long enough that Manou fell asleep She missed the food (but was taken care of thereafter) I had two short naps on the flight too, which was good and kept me going until after 8 p.m. heretime (about 21 hours methinx) We deboarded without any trouble the hertz bus was waiting for us and the driver helped Andre with all the luggage. Then there was a tiny hickup but we got the ordered Sienna (big enough to take all teh luggage and give us an idea on the car itself (which is not as gigantic as I feared it might be) ) and around 6 p.m. we pulled into our new utterly unlit driveway, showing the kids the empty and DARK house as all the utilities had been turned off (except - I found out today_ the phone and tV O.o?????) It doesn't look too good for getting everything connected today :O Got to buy lots of candles and no too much stuff that needs refrigeration, sigh. Hubby will be at work all day until very late he will not return until the night has fallen truly and since I am with his phone the state of things will be somewhat of a surprise. I hope I can get the keys for our friend's place which holds our sleeping essentials today, because tonight we will sleep in our house, I just don"t know how well we will sleep. Sigh.

So it is just as Perdita foretold: Now that I am done with the old place I am basically stuck with making the new one (which I really hope will have water, gas and electricity etc SOON.

I am typing this at 5.30 in the morning, one would think that being sick and having traveled for as much as I did one could sleep ion, but my body has issues. BUt Since I know that I will be adjusting over the course of the week, I am fine with getting up early using the hotel's computer (knowing that my access will be severely limited in the next few days. I"ll post again when I am ready.
