Countdown is on

Well we are T minus 8 weeks to departure and things are starting to happen. Thankfully our Visa's were approved very quickly so we were able to relax and enjoy our family cruise and trip to Disney (pictures to be uploaded later, they are on the other computer.) Now we are back and the holiday is officially over. If anyone has ever put your house on the market before you know how challenging it can be to try and keep it clean for showings at any time. Now combine that with 2 small children, unpacking and laundry from vacation, and trying to figure out what to pack for the next 4 months to live with since we are hoping to ship our furniture next week. Can you say STRESS! I am trying to take it all in stride and just take each day by day but you all know I am a bit of a worrier. We have lists upon lists of things we need to sell, things we need to cancel, people we need to notify. And I am sure the next few weeks are just going to fly by. I welcome advice from anyone who has gone through this (namely Kath, Katrina and Jen - come on...spill your secrets)

  1. Oh boy, I feel for you!! I can relate but my move was within Canada so I didn't have half the stuff to contend with that you do! Good luck. We're thinking of you and keeping our fingers crossed for a quick sale on the house. There are no secrets... just comfort in knowing that adapting to a new life is a breeze once you've gotten through this phase!! :)

  2. Hang in there. You can get it all done. God put you on this path and will be faithful to guide all the pieces into place. This I am sure of and pray for no stressing for you.

    Love you.
