plowing through

My piece of advice for anyone thinking about moving abroad.
• Do NOT do it at Christmas time.
• Do NOT attempt to make it coincide with finishing your university studies.
• Do NOT wait until three weeks before leaving to finish off the procrasinated to-do list.
• Do NOT forget to pay your utility bills because you are scrambling so hard to save money.

But most importantly,
• Do it.

Despite the craziness of my life right now, I believe with everything in me that it is the right thing for us to do. There haven't been many things that I've been confident of in my life: getting married, getting divorced and going on this adventure. Everything else, I just kind of hoped it was the right thing. Luckily, it has often proven to be (though I've been wrong on more than a few [dozen] occassions). As Martha says, "It's a good thing."

Now, back to the Xmas sewing.
