Well, we have now arrived in our new home. Catherine is ecstatic about the new house and has been leaping around the room with excitement. (Mind you, we nearly leapt around the room too!). I have NEVER seen Catherine so excited about anything. She was so excited that she couldn't even get to sleep this evening on our inflatable beds (our proper beds are being delivered tomorrow). Obviously, for Catherine, a new house far surpasses Christmas Eve, Birthday parties or holidays. She even saw the new Corps (church) today and was really excited about that, too.
If you are reading this and don't know how the Salvation Army ministry works then it may sound odd that everyone is excited about this new house. We get sent to a particular Corps (church) and we have no idea what the accommodation will be like. We were really delighted with our new home and it has just been refurbished. Tomorrow all our belongings will be delivered, and the challenge will then be to unpack and find homes for everything.
Next Tuesday, Catherine will be going to her new hospital for the first time for a lumbar puncture and chemotherapy into her spinal fluid (done under general anaesthetic). It will be very new for us all going to this new hospital, but we hope that she will adjust quickly to the different routine at the hospital.
Anyway, I had better go as we have lots to do tomorrow, and I need to stockpile the biscuits for the removal men.
