Pre move wobble
 

OMG I leave the UK on Sat, car not sold, house not sold, leaving OH & dogs behind. AM I NUTS!!!!

My scared - excited swing has just flipped from excited to scared :omg_smile::beer::beer:

Re: Pre move wobble
 

Not nuts (oh well, maybe a little). But very brave.

Re: Pre move wobble
 

You arranged things in such a way that OH would be left behind to sell house, car, deliver dogs to airport?

How did you manage that?

Just kidding. Karma sent as a virtual shot in the arm. :wub:

It's only Canada you're moving to, not Iraq. Don't panic.

Re: Pre move wobble
 

Putting it that way............WooHoo I'm excited again. :eek:

Re: Pre move wobble
 

Wow - so on one hand you get to leave all those stresses behind and on the other hand you get to have some real first experiences and get all knowledgable before your OH follows!

I found the house, car and everything selling bit quite a stress at home and this side not nearly as difficult.

We came over together without a house or jobs....... me, OH and our two cats! Straight to a hotel........... we did not know anyone here.......... and I only booked the hotel for 2 weeks............ so on day 14............ we moved into our rental house........... when you land here it's all go but in a good way!

Good on ya :thumbsup:, it's usually the ladies who are left behind to sort the house sale etc.

Good luck to both you and your OH

Good one Sharon, sell your car to Webuyanycar.com, thats how we got rid of ours north of manchester.

Good luck for Saturday as recent Canadian newbies I wont kid you that it is awful hard leaving but awfully worth it when you get here, look on the bright side you'll have lots of making up for lost time when OH gets here:eek::eek:

Re: Pre move wobble
 

Good luck Sharon, hope the journey goes well..I know you will be sad leaving your dogs (not sure about OH!!! :rofl:), we brought our boxer (and the cat) over from the UK with us (I was worried sick enough eben though I flew on the same flight as the pets - lots of turbulence - but it worked out fine). You'll get lots of kissylicks when they finally catch up with you over here in due course. Hope it all goes well!

Re: Pre move wobble
 

My OH wants us to do the same when our move (finally) happens, i.e. for me to go ahead with the children and he to stay behind to sort out house rental/sale etc. I must be a control freak because I find that really hard to envision... in some ways I want to be here for tidying up all the loose ends.

Others who have trodden this same path tell me there comes a moment when you say "Stuff it" and just close the chapter off in your mind. That frees you to relax, pour yourself a glass of bubbly and toast to the new life. Best of luck for Saturday.:thumbsup:
