Woohooo! Four days till lift-off, and all I can say is God is good!! We got our house decluttered 6 months ago when we were planning to sell it. It didn't sell, but we were saying yesterday how glad we are not to be decluttering now! Sid and I both have tendencies towards last-minuteness, and I can just picture how these last days would have been if we hadn't decluttered back in January!!
We found some friends to rent our house from us - who want it furnished, so we can basically just walk out leaving all our furniture here.
We've been looking for somewhere to live, and have found a 3 bedroom house, in our budget, 2 miles from campus. One of Sid's coursemates went to see it and it looks great. So we're just getting that finalised.
Oh, and money! Somehow we have the $50,000 needed for a year of study! And visas.
We've had endless lists of things to do over the last few months, and God's given us the energy and motivation to do everything.
So now it's just packing and tying up loose ends. Over the last 6 years we've travelled quite a bit together, certainly enough to know that leaving it to the last minute is not a pleasant experience for either of us! So we decided not to be stressed this time round. Wednesday lunch is our cut off point after which there will be no packing, no to do lists, no last minute anything. We will be spending Wednesday afternoon and evening enjoying our last hours in Chester! Hurray :)
