You know when you pull onto your street after a really long week and the familiarity of it all makes you smile and feel cozy even though the week didn't deliver? Or when you cross the rickety bridge of Elderbank backroad and suddenly remember that you have a hundred people on your team who will hug you and make you smile ? when you pull into the driveway of the big white house and know inside it'll be warm and full of love?
It's not quite the same, but that's how Nanai road has come to feel to me and Reffa now. We were bopping along on the public transit which is 25 baht instead of 400 (for a tuktuk), and the closer we got to what we now call home, the happier we felt to know we would see mum, our friends, our pub, and our bed soon. We were stuck in phuket town applying for jobs.. we just don't feel it. there aren't any jobs here right now. we're packing our bags and leaving tomorrow morning to go to surat thani. we might be a few days without a blog, just because we don't know when or where a computer might be.
will miss you. we keep hoping that surat thani will bring it's own home to our hearts.

Good luck with your relocation girls. Jessica may I say, you write very well and I love to read your stories! It snowed here today so think of us ice people in Calgary. Kevin and Tim are now BFF's and they hang out more with each other than either one of them hangs out with ME!!! I am now broke because I had to pay big money to get a wisdom tooth removed then I overspent for Tim on his B-day. Also Ref remember that pesky Rogers bill I refused to pay??? Well the debt collectors are after me and harassing me at work... no biggie... I'm just a frickin CONVICT! Love you girls!
