Default We fly one week tomorrow

Wow, container has left with our meagre possessions, kids have quit school and we are now homeless and jobless! But ... very excited as we fly to Calgary a week tomorrow. Thank you to all you guys that have helped us through by answering questions and explaining things. We got there in the end! Just have to find a car, a home, a job etc etc etc now and all will be plain sailing!!!!

Good luck! I am in the same boat as both of you. Fly out in 6 weeks to Toronto, all alone with no job, no car, etc... eeeek!!! Huge bag of mixed emotions, but exciting times ahead.

We were in your situation 4 years ago next week,quite scary at the time,no home/jobs etc.Not sure if we could go through it again but well worth all the effort,blood sweat and tears.Best of luck to you,it'll be great.
