Comfortably Numb

After many hugs, kisses and a lot of best wishes we are almost ready to go. We have had our second round of vaccines. Our sea container is packed and awaiting our import permit. Everything is almost packed in our luggage. Just the few essentials left needed for the coming days.
Everyone says, it is coming up fast, you must be nervous or excited, etc. I think I am comfortably numb. That is a good thing. Comfortable is a good feeling. I am comfortable with where we are going. Our home is waiting for us and I am excited to show the girls. Numb is no feeling at all. That is what I am forcing myself to be, or I would think about the next two years and cry every time someone says good bye. So numb it is for now until we are comfortable in our new surrounding. Or at least until I am in our new home, kids sleeping and me drinking some wine. Then I can cry, probably just tears of joy and relief.
