The Goodbye Post

It's 11pm and I'm waiting to transfer a load of laundry to the dryer. So please try and ignore my run on sentences and my slightly melancholy tone.  Even though we are 95% packed, there's still a lot to do by tomorrow morning when the movers arrive. I will be awake for a while. Anyway I'm finding it hard to believe that these 2 and half years in Philadelphia are coming to an end. I'm finding it really hard to say goodbye. Now that I have my own family, I understand the saying "home is where the heart is" and my heart lies with Craig and my kids, but I'm going to miss my family in NYC, and I'm going to miss all my friends in Philadelphia. They were once new friends but now I feel like I've known everyone forever. This week I've had so many goodbye breakfasts, lunches and dinners. (and I can't fit into my skinny jeans at the moment) I can't believe how kind everyone has been to my family. I can't believe what a great time I had here and I can't believe it's coming to an end. When I left Los Angeles, I had a similar feeling. I remember thinking, oh this what death must feel like. It's like hey wait a minute, I just got my groove and now its all coming to an end. Of course I should see this as a new beginning and I do. I'm  really excited to finally make roots. I never planned on living in San Francisco, in fact I told Craig, that I would never live in Northern California, but in the end, I agreed and I'm happy with that decision.

Any way as soon as I settle in, I'm changing the name of the blog. I'm not sure what I'll be writing about, but I will always have something to say if the Real Housewives are on the air.

So goodnight Philadelphia. Thanks for all the good memories. And see you soon!

Love, Daniela
