I feel exactly the same, 6 weeks to go .... where do I start? I've bubble wrapped a few plates, and seem to be endlessly spending my time filling up black bin bags with rubbish from the cupboards. Tried to focus on one room at a time, but that hasn't worked either ..!!!! aaaarrrrrhhhhh :eek:
MAkes it a bit easier hearing other people are feeling the same ... and have survived!!! :thumbsup: |

the thought of the wine and warm evenings is proving to be of help - ta! :thumbsup: from researching , we will probably rent anywhere from flagstaff hill, woodcroft , reynella, aberfoyle park or even further south eg maclaren flat maybe? depends on what we could possibly afford to eventually buy as we aren't rich:( and my OH wants to learn a trade - less income - and i'm a hairdresser so although they appear to get paid more everywhere else than the uk I dont know what wage to morgae ratio it will be :confused:it will all work out fine though because it has too though.:thumbsup: where are you thinking of settling when you arrive? kath x |

can anyone slap some sense into me?! we are flying to adelaide in 5weeks and i am beyond stressed....:eek: if it's not dealing with the house/removals it's emotional goodbyes and trying to sound positive about our "exciting adventure" :curse: PLEASE tell me i am not going mad and that it is normal to continually bicker with OH and spontaneously burst into tears while laughing hysterically??!:confused: am sure i sound like moody selfish monster (??!) but am really terrified now it is sooo near - there aren't enough hours in the day - even with an organised OH and lists an ocd patient would be amazed by. tell me it will be worth it.....:confused: Just keep reminding yourself of all the exciting things that first made you want to move to Oz. It's a nightmare packing things but it'll soon be over and if you smash or lose a few things along the way so what, it's only stuff. You really only need your OH, passport and visa!!! Good luck, you'll love Adelaide, it's a beautiful place to live |

Hey Dotty
Just keep reminding yourself of all the exciting things that first made you want to move to Oz. It's a nightmare packing things but it'll soon be over and if you smash or lose a few things along the way so what, it's only stuff. You really only need your OH, passport and visa!!!
