Just "Rome-ing" Around

Yeah, cheesy title, but who cares. Basically it's how I feel...just roaming about, doing bits and bobs, but nothing much happening after the last of the moving stuff left the now empty flat. Of course, I am in Rome as well, where my family resided for the last year and a half. Now it's come down to the last few days of just killing time, my sister seeing her friends for the last time, and my uncle leaving for Colombia before we go to Madrid.
Madrid is somethign I have to mentally prepare for, as it's where my dad's family lives, and it's not going to be easy having a 10 year old and an 8 year old cousin clinging on 24/7 when I simply won't have the energy nor the enthusiasm. And it will also be my grandfather's 80th birthday, something that won't be much of a happy occasion this year due to the unexpected death of my father. It will also be my cousin's 11th birthday I believe. Hope that goes well. I am thinking my sister and my cousins should go to a theme park we used to go as young girls near Madrid so as to drain our cousins' energy out, lol....it's a plan!
Hmm, what now though?? I am not enjoying Rome as much, although it's a beautiful city, but it's too bloody hot and I already got bitten on my toes and legs by nasty little buggers...but that is expected. And Colombia will be no better. But who gives a poo, I adore Colombia and my family and I wouldn't change my life for what I have got there. I have not been back since the summer of 2005 which is rare for me to miss a summer there, but I am intending to change that and go in the winters instead and spend my summers in UK/Europe working and being with boyfriend and friends, hopefully starting next year.
Well, for now I have nothing left to say, except that I want the next couple of weeks to fly by, and arrive in Colombia finally. Hope you're all having a wicked summer so far. Hasta pronto people!
