My Mum still has a very hard time dealing with me and Ari. It's a huge event for me in the past year when she tells me she loves me. She used to tell me all the time. It's not that she doesn't. I suppose she's just more detached or something.

Anyway, i browse in bookshops and on the internet sometimes in the hope of a magic solution.

I just came across this, which just made my blood boil. Thought I'd share the anger.

Oh the rage.

If anyone is sitting out there with magic solutions please let me know...

It has become a huge strain to be here, instead of home, where we could do something about the communication aspect of making things better. I really want to get to know her mum, and I want her to get to know me, or at least get used to my presence. There is very little we can do about this while we're so far away. If we weren't embroiled with Dockside, we would have come home ages ago. The problem with being on holiday for so long is that it's such a long time to keep eachother company. Settling becomes inevitable and then it sucks you in. It won't be long till we come home, but it's still too long. My father came over a few weeks ago because of Nona dying, and was so impressed with the huge amounts of experience and money we're ammassing that he wants us to stay. Terrified as usual of my failing if I stray into unchartered territory, he has put subtle pressures on us to try to get this visa extension; and then another, and then another, and then stay forever, unhappy but rich. Which is what he's doing at the moment. He was very disappointed when I told him we were going home. So it's all been push - pull arrgh!

Anyway - Lizzie has been most touched by your words and I completely agree. It's been really good to hear from you, Fliss, in particular. It makes me miss you all horribly.

Thanks. We love you.

I know a few people who are undergoing parental pressures at the moment...I guess we're at that age where our parent's generation would have settled down a lot more. I suppose that makes you appreciate having such good friends who know what you're going through. My parents have days where they panic and start questioning why I do so much stuff I don't get paid for. I think we sometimes just need to remind each other how fabulous we, and our futures, are.

And yeah me for an entire post with no sarcasm.

I love everyone today. Even David Blaine. Bless him.

Wow. We are fabulous, aren't we?

Lizzie just told Dave that we've coming home in August. Things are feeling so tense right now! They are in the office, discussing the future of the company without Lizzie. We are free! Free!

Ooh!
