Re: wives left behind
My OH has been gone 13 weeks now. I too am surrounded by boxes, the removers come next week and we fly out on the 19th June. It has been really really hard. We decided like Tina that enough was enough and booked our flights to go over, we were going to leave the house up for sale but a few days after this decision it sold.
I must admit I am now having the jitters, wondering if things will be the same after all this time apart.
Guess I find out in 17 days
To all you gals and guys that are/going to be apart fom there OH, just keep in mind why you are doing this and it's not forever. At times it will be hard but chin up and remember you are not alone.

Re: wives left behind
We are doing it the other way around, for a year and a half!!!!! OH is in the RN and has to finish his time here, however, we want to get over and get the children settled into school before they get too old. So I am going over on my own and OH will stay in the UK (or wherever the Navy sends him).
I am quite nervous about it all but know I will have to cope and get on with it. I shall be that 'crazy British lady that talks to everyone'
, trying to make friends and getting a routine and social network going.

What a coincidence, our last name is also Manson, my husband is from Leeds and we are also moving to Canada this year..what are the chances in all my 19 years married to him I have never met another Manson (other than family).
Good luck with your move and your new life..I am Canadian so this move is just a home coming to me.

Re: wives left behind
I left my ex-wife behind. Does that count?
