It is said that the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. It feels as though I have taken thousands of steps since Rick accepted the teaching job in the UK! It’s time for a pedicure.
Two weeks from today, Rick will be flying to London. We hit a glitch with Channing’s passport so we aren’t all ready to go yet. In hindsight, this probably works out better. With Rick leaving before us, it will give him the chance to check out some places to rent without Chan and me tagging along and needing our numerous bathroom and snack breaks. Rick is a seasoned traveller – I am not – and he is quite comfortable staying in a hostel and living out of a back pack. Okay, I don’t need the Hilton but I do need my pillow and I can’t go for hours on a handful of wheat thins and a cup of coffee. So I am trying to wrap my head around us not leaving as a team and how it will feel being here while Rick has already started our journey.
