I couldn't wait to get everything sorted and come back out to join them, even though our house sale had not completed at the time, and I left it for our solicitor to sort out.

The next period til you join them will be difficult, but try and keep regular contact and it's just about bearable. My OH was terrible at that ... I guess things were pretty hectic for him here, but eventually I told him I'd fall apart completely if he did not answer my emails as soon as he got them, and/or call me avery day!

Whats your timescale until you are all joining him? Or is it still a bit up in the air?

Hi Gaynor,
Hugs to you,time will go by like a freight train and you all will be together
in Canada.Soon we will reading your new thread that you and the kids
are on the way here.

When my partner's parents sold their house in Victoria ,their real estate
agent baked cinnamon buns in the oven just before a buyer came to view
the house . The house was sold at the asking price during the slump in housing market and it was sold within 1 day.
I kicked myself that I did not buy his parents' home.I do not know
whether this cinnamon buns thing or baking fresh bread would work in UK.
It is the aroma that makes the buyer feels homey
All will be well

Hi
Know what you mean it sort of rekindles all those feelings that get pushed to one side , when mortgages day to day living and bringing up the kids brings with it hope its all going well and you are all back together soon

Hi floss

Seems to be having a whale of a time has already spent £ 14K on a new car.

Miss him like crazy and just want to get there now.

Typical bloke, eh? If mine went before me, I'm sure I'd arrive to an empty house except for 50" plasma, xbox 360, armchair with cupholders and a dodge ram in the garage!!!

Oh, and a fridge full of cold beers!
