Unfortunately he passed away 5 years ago. Although I don't know you in person I truly appreciate you as a woman, designer, mother , wife and friend. Hopefully I would be a great wife and momma one day like you. You set a great example.<br /><br /><br />Diaryofaclassylady.blogspot.com<br /><br />AndreaAndreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06716334354309711564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575028680263259349.post-15261437100945028382013-02-09T13:48:00.485-07:002013-02-09T13:48:00.485-07:00great post Sarah!

I kind of struggle with that a bit since many people view living as an expat as such a glamorous life when it's really not. What I wouldn't do to come back to Canada! But complaining just brings about a roll of the eyes from some of my family and friends which is kind of hurtful. It would be nice to open up and really be honest without the reactions. lisaroyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09201063720578870254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575028680263259349.post-20790539180378800152013-02-09T10:43:54.830-07:002013-02-09T10:43:54.830-07:00Sarah- It was so great getting to know a bit more ...Sarah- It was so great getting to know a bit more about you. I don't have a blog, but have been contemplating starting one, however I keep talking myself out of it, because really, my life isn't perfect like the bloggers that I love reading about so much- I don't have endless funds to buy new clothes, constantly redecorate, etc. And my new husband and I are really just homebodies that like to hang out with each other (i.e. no parties to speak of, or fabulous outings to go to all the time.)<br />Anyway, sorry for the rambling, but it's so great to read this from a blogger, especially one who I enjoy and admire so much!<br />Have a great weekend, <br />Emily Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08958436202307024464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575028680263259349.post-82651328765313098282013-02-08T22:49:03.725-07:002013-02-08T22:49:03.725-07:00Lovely post, Sarah.

Oh, and we're also getting ready to list our home (job transfer). If you have any advice/suggestions in that regard (prepping house), I'd love to read about them.
