Here we are again.....

[adelliam]

Greetings Family,

Here we be, just listened to "Today is a Good Day", now onto "Carnival" and "Eight".

The reason for this post is that we have just been laid off AGAIN, two weeks ago.
We went through this a year ago, and had to move to another state for a friggin' job, and it happened again!

But we are healing our wounds by listening to the Best Band ever...the music we listen to the day when our most beloveds pass to the next world, the day when we loose our ability to pay our bills, all the days of heartbreak when we need to feel that Family is eternal.

New Model Army....all of you....you have NO idea how far the heartbeat you have shared has reached.

Thank you,

Adelheid and William

[Barty]

Sorry to hear about your jobs....best of luck finding new ones.

You're right about the healing power of music, especially NMA....straight on for the days ahead chaps.

So sorry to hear of your bad luck, you will prevail, good luck.

Cheers

[Guillaume]

good luck, "courage"!

[adelliam]

Thank you everyone!

We shall press on, and Spirits be willing, we'll be able to land a gig back home.

A mere 440 miles does a world of difference make, and we will be most joyful about putting
this reality behind us.

Thank you again, and we will share the celebration when it comes about.

To Family!
Adelheid and William

Hey Family!

Thank you for the words of encouragement.

Today we have great news....we are employed again AND moving back to the very house we left that
we loved...440 miles to heaven, not far at all.

All while discovering that there is NMA music in the making.

Tomorrow will bring what tomorrow will bring, but Today is ABSOLUTELY a Good Day!!!

Cheers to all,
Adelheid and William

Hey Adelheid and William, well done, good things come to those who persevere.

I too was recently made redundant and now have an offer on the table to consider, which means the Xmas gigs are now firmly back on the agenda

Today is definitely a good day.

Cheers

Well said and I do hope that you find something very soon

[Stoney]

Great news!!!!!!!! There's so many folks having a shit time with work this year! Just bad times all over!

[adelliam]

Thank you Stoney, Blink, jc, Guillaume & Barty

We're in straight on for the days ahead mode at last. A new pair of good boots for both of us will be in order when we get there. Yay!

Where's that Star Trek transporter technology when we need it? Free stout & pizza to whomever wants to come help lift boxes into the truck! 

Thanks again everyone. You warm our hearts.

Adelheid & William

Thank you Heloisa,

To everyone that has moved or will in the future, here are the lyrics to Loudin Wainwright's
"Cardboard Boxes":

I'm going to go to the supermarket,
I'm going to go to the liquor store.
I'm going to get me some cardboard boxes,
You know what them boxes are for.

I'm going to rent me a U-Haul trailer,
Hook it on the back of my old car.
Call up some of my stronger buddies,
That's what your strong buddies are for.

We're going to move,
We're going to move,
Yeah, move.

Give it to the Salvation Army or the Goodwill,
We've got so much junk its a joke.
Wrap a knick-knack in some old newspaper,
I know it was a present but the damn thing broke.

Your old shoes and my old t-shirts,
My strong buddies crave ice cold beer.
Don't throw that away, its a family heirloom,
I've had that ashtray for fifteen years.

We're going to move,
We're going to move,
Yeah, move.

We're going to empty out our old place,
And move into a brand new better space,
Yeah move.

We've got the books and the records and the tapes and the pictures,
And the pots and the pans and all the breakable glass,
The living room couch and the dining room table,
The washer and the drier, what a pain in the ass.

We've got the TV and the home entertainment center,
The box spring and the queen sized bed,
We've got the Christmas decorations and the bureau and the playpen,
If we had a piano I think I'd drop dead.

We're going to move,
We're going to move,
Yeah, move.

At the end of the day the old place is empty,
And the new place houses all of our stuff.
Unpack all our crap from cardboard boxes,
It wasn't that bad, no, it wasn't so rough.

But my strong buddies look a little bit grumpy,
I don't know why I broke my butt.
Tomorrow we'll call up the telephone company,
And get another set of house keys cut.

We're going to move,
We're going to move,
Yeah, move.

I can tell by the look on your face,
You just love our brand new better space, baby,

Yeah, move.
We're going to move,
We're going to move,
We're going to move,
We're going to move,
We're going to move,
Yeah, move.
........................

So we are OUTTA here next Wednesday, and will send very happy thoughts from New Mexico.

Please know that everyone will have a warm welcome, a place to stay, and tasty vittles when NMA plays in Albuquerque, NM again.

Thanks folks, so happy to call you Family!
Adelheid and William

As one door closes another one opens, i know sometimes it's hard but don't be afraid of change. Hope everything works out for you.

[Pol]

Well I'm only moving basically next door no.28 to no.34 but its been hard going especially doing it all myself ( ok I will need a hand with a few heavy things ) . The amount of stuff you gather over the years is unreal especially when you love charity and second hand shops. Wasn't planning on moving but its too good to turn down. It's my 7th move as an adult, probably on par when I moved house with the mrs n kids. Starting to really get things the way I want. Should be fully in by this time next week.

[Stephanie]

I have only moved twice as an adult - and am not keen on repeating the experience. Yes, it IS unreal what you collect over the years.

Fingers crossed for smooth moving, Pol, and all the best in your new home!
