Going home
November 22nd 2007 13:42
I’m not sure that I’m desperately keen to get back to work, but both my wife and I are very keen to get back to New Zealand, and our family, and our own home. This last week has been very slow as we wait for Saturday to come. We fly out around 8 pm, going back to Korea (it takes some twelve hours) where we stay for a couple of nights, and then home to New Zealand. Unfortunately we’ve got to wait in Auckland for seven hours (!); one of those hitches that occur due to flights not meshing together well enough.
Never mind, at least once we’re there, we’ll be able to sort out our place again and take all the things out of the room we stored them in. By all accounts our tenants have left the place in a reasonable condition, so on that score things are okay.
Because we’re now going home earlier than planned we’ll have some ten days or so before either of us starts work. I can see my wife getting fed up and wanting to go back to her job sooner than that. She’s already fretting at the slowness of time here.
It’s possible I could start earlier; they’re keen for me to come anyway.
However, we’ll both need to recover from jet lag and the long flights. Once that’s settled, we’ll make some decisions about working again.
