Stressed?

Am I stressed now???

Oh yes!

I have spent all day running up and down the stairs, filling boxes, throwing things away, putting stuff in charity bags. On the phone, ringing the council, ringing shippers, ringing Admissions, ringing attendance person trying to get the kids out of school without getting into trouble. Visited the doctors to get innoculation forms ready for kids starting Canadian school but they won't transfer our medical records. We can pay to have them photocopied but it's expensive and probably unnecessary (no one has any long term problems and I'm sure Canada is equipped to deal with our needs anyway).


We now have a moving date to get out of our UK house - 4 th November (omg that's less than two weeks away).

We have appointed our shipper.  They are packing on the 1st and 2nd November and taking everything away on the 3rd November - so that leaves us one night in our empty house without beds, bedding, tv, computer (aaargh what will I do?).  Anyone got a blow up mattress or camp bed we can borrow?

We still don't have a rental place for Canada. 

Moo is clearing her spare room out in readiness for two of us staying in bunk beds - he he.  Grandma is accommodating the other two.

Still got loads of stuff to sell including two cars.
