It's that nearly 1am feeling and I am strangely feeling CALM
 
Well - this is where we are:

House on Market
First load of stuff in storage
In the stages of closing down my UK company (Not as emotional as I thought)
Finished Resume
Reopened discussions with HSBC Canada, still have accounts from 5 years ago.
Flights Booked
Insurance sorted
Dog cages ordered

All in all - things developing nicely ... SO ... what can I not sleep ? Excitement? Underlying anxiety ?

Who knows ...

Bit of both probably. Get as much sleep as you can before the move... Emigrating is exhausting... :)

I reckon it's excitement.

I can normally sleep on a bed of thorns during a thunderstorm while being hit by rocks, lol, but since we sent our stuff away in a container last week I'm wide awake.

4 weeks on Thursday for us :eek:

I'm exactly the same. 12 weeks tomorrow for us. I get to 2:30am precisely every night and wake up buzzing. :scarper:

It's probably the missus bedtime toy. Remind her to switch it off before she goes sleep next time :nod:

If he keeps waking up buzzing, she needs to switch it off and find somewhere more, um...hygienic to store it? :blink:

If that's your photo..lucky her!

OP, I didn't sleep properly for at least three months before I left, and the month before when all my goodies were in transit, I'd go to bed knackered and wake up in the middle of the night with my mind in a panic:eek: then guess what? It all gets much, much worse! Before calming down eventually:). I'm really glad I moved, and I really hope you will be too....but I'm really really glad I don't have to do it again for the foreseeable future. Best of luck.
