Exhaustion persists. I've just finished day 10 of 12. I can't believe I only have two days at the clinic. I REALLY can't believe that I'm leaving England permenantly on Sunday morning.
I've had a busy afternoon. I had to take care of my on-base leaving checklist. Filing paperwork for road tax. Mailing stuff. Putting a hold on mail. Picking up Philip's debit card to get to him so he has $ to get home. I came back to the house and started cooking up a storm. Right now I'm working on a roast and a huge batch of homemade bread to put in the freezer for Philip and I have a "vegetable crumble" (yummy clinic recipe. . . adapted a bit. . . added chicken and, well, won't lie I didn't use near as much butter ;) in the oven for tea tonight. I'm quite pleased as I've done a fairly good job of planning food the last couple of weeks to use everything in the fridge and freezer up!
I was overnight in Norwich on Saturday night and Monday night. I didn't want to drive home at 11 pm on Sat. night just to turn around and leave the house at 6:30 am. Monday night I went out with some of my work colleagues for my official "leaving do" (
if you remember from my post on Sarah's "hen do" you will remember that in the UK "do" is a term for a party/gathering). We had a WONDERFUL night of fantastic food (okay, dessert was a bit dissapointing but the main was super), wonderful company and tons of laugher at "Ha Ha's Bar & Grill" - a nice, upscale restaurant in Norwich.

Do you have audio that goes with the pictures from your "do?" Looks likes a lot of smiles and hearty laughs. They were probably getting some more teasing in about your American"isms."
