the most stressful things that happen in adult life

moving in general is (apparently) together with going through a divorce and changing jobs one of the most stressful things that happen in adult life
i'm getting such practice that apart from the logistical issues involved, which, let's be realistic, are always a pain in the butt, moving house and country! again! it's now for me a a time for reflection
i leave this city and this country having made good friends from whom i am rather to sad to be parted, but with some excellent and rather hilarious memories of weekend excursions, soirees, and some serious partying, including some early breakfasts in posh hotels with blurred mascara on
my new destination is talked about by expats as an excellent place to live, so despite the sadness of leaving, there is also the excitement of the discovering of a new place, finding new friendships and learning a similar yet different culture
once the also nightmarish logistical issues are over and done with, it should be a fine place to be and rest for a while....for a change

on the bright side: should you ever get a divorce it will be a walk in the park after moving so many times ;-))
