At airport and terrified lol
Well, its 7.40am, hubby has gone to drop animals at the cargo centre and I'm sat in the hotel room waiting for him to come back so we can go check in at T1. To say im cr*pping myself is a slight understatement. yesterday was a blurr, shppers arrived and my house was emptied - most stuff went in but had to leave a fewbits behind - oh well!!
Goodbyes were AWFUL - its not been easy anyway as my mum and sister have been really stroppy with me for going - my Mum has been VERY upset about the whole thing and i really think she thought if she cried enough over the last few weeks I would change my mind. I have hardly seen her as she has been avoiding me like the plague and when I have seen here she has burst into tears - its been very hard. Myself and hubby have coped pretty much on our own, no help from either side of our family at all. ( not even little stuff on the last day like milk or help cleaning etc). yesterday I felt like the worst person on earth and it made it so much harde to do what we are doing
So im sat here at the airport - my tummy is doing a million summersaults my legs wobble when i stand up and i feel like running away
Luckily im sure I have read posts on here where people have felt last minute panic as they are getting ready to fly over - we have a very long day ahead of us with 2 kids and 4 animals - so for now i'll sign off and hopefully see you all at the other side - and I'll be feeling much better.

Bless you!!!!
How awful of them to be so negative.....you will get through this...it is after all YOUR life and no good sitting in an old folks home in your old age here wishing you had made the move. Tell them to look forward to the holidays they can have with you.
Wishing you all the very best....have a drink on the plane...for medicinal purposes of course

Good luck!! 
What a shame for you that your family couldn't be supportive of your decision. I am sure you will feel better when you get there.

Hey,
my thoughts are with you for the day it must be soo hard without your family's support.
concentrate on the large glass of wine youll have tonight when you finally get there, then when you get it your allowed to have the biggest contented sigh ever and youll know today is over with, ready to look forward to the rest!
