Today I walked, or rather stumbled, out of the townhouse I have called home for the last 12 or so years; as long, I think, as I've called any place home, for what might be the last time. I dragged my last nine parcels out with me.
Excuse me. I nodded off there just now. Have not slept much at all lately. High hopes for tonight though.
The taxi driver came with van at a surcharge as requested. He looked at the walker and my bags and said:
"Is that all coming?"
Translation: "I wish that wasn't all coming."
Me: "Yes."
