Im going out of my mind at the minute - ups and downs all the time.

Im stressed out badly with this house sale crap - I was adamant that it should be tied up before February and then they go and ask stupid questions about dropped kerbs and looks like its not going to be done by the end of hte week - poxy bloddy conveyancer doesnt return my calls until 2 mins before the end of hte day so nothing ever gets done, and I spend my days sitting by the phone waiting for an update.

As for the visa its going okay at the moment, plodding along I suppose  - some of the August applicants have their COs which is fabulous ad I have just booked us in for medicals and xrays for mid feb which has lifted my spirits. I like to feel like I am doing something, and I think thats a big part of my frustration, I like to be in control and busy, but I have come to a standstill, there is no more I can do with house or packing etc or with the visa and its like my life is in other peoples hands at the moment....its torture, I never realised what a control freak I can be.

Oh well, Im determined and wont give up so I am nagging the hell out of my conveyancer and got my medicals booked so on with the waiting game, fingers crossed. xxx
