I'm in Northern Ireland visiting my Son, DIL and two grandsons for the week.
They're moving house and I'm here along with the outlaws helping out with lifting, moving, cleaning and childcare.
It's been a little tense at times with 5 adults trying to make decisions and the occasional fighting over who is getting the grandchildren hugs lol.
I've been sleeping in my campervan on my son's drive for the first part of the week and for the rest of the week I'm on the outlaws drive.
I've moved a lot and I mean A LOT.
As a child I'd lived in 4 houses in 4 different parts of the UK by the time I was 10.
Between the ages of 17 and 24 I lived in 4 different places within a 50 mile radius of home.
Since then I've had three homes in the UK and two in South Africa and two in Dubai, plus we've had temporary accommodation in between our international relocations, plus long hotel stays.
The longest I've ever lived in one house is 8 years, our current home, which we're back in for then second time and we've been here now for almost 6 years.
They're in a chain and today is the day we wait for the call to collect the keys. The van is being loaded the house is being cleaned and we'll be done by midday and then hanging around waiting for the call as the money is transfered down the line.
It sounds like a really busy week. I hope the move for your son and his family have gone well.
