Reality kicks in

Well, until now...it hasn't seemed real. I didn't feel like we were actually going, until I walked out of work knowing I wouldn't be back tomorrow. So, if I've left my job...I must be really going to China! What a strange feeling!...it was like as soon as I walked out the door, I was entering into my new life. Leaving everything that is normal to me behind. It was an amazing feeling.

Tonight we continue to pack...and do laundry. We have gone without a washing machine for the past week as our old one called it quits (great timing huh!). It's been hectic trying to prepare suitcases, and not having any clean clothes to put in them!!...but all is good again, and the new washing machine will be put to great use in the next couple of days.

Tomorrow...my first day of no work will be spent filing for UI, getting my eyebrows done (ha, ha), and bathing the dog...and more packing and laundry!

I hope to post one last time before we go!
