Here's a few updates...in my procrastination, I've been VERY busy with non-essential activities like coffee dates with students and scrapbook days with friends. Very, very busy!
1. Still haven't officially sold the house. We have a great offer and are hoping to have the offer officially "offered" by Monday. However, this guy will most likely have difficulties getting financing, so if you're a prayer, PRAY BABY PRAY! We did have another guy look today, so that was nice.
2. We got our work Visas back! So even if everything else falls through, we can go to and work in India.
3. I'm ALMOST totally current in my scrapbooking. If you're not a scrapbooker just continue to #4. If you are a scrapbooker, you'll hoot and holler because you know how exciting this is!
4. We've already made some India friends! Cookie and Dave are friends of Chris' aunt and uncle. They've already worked at Woodstock for four years (back in the 90's), and are going back this year. It's been so much fun talking to them and sharing this time...they're SO helpful. We just chose our seats next to each other on the plane too...ahh, new friends!
5. I'm starting to feel very panicky lately. Chris and I are definitely different...fortunately (or maybe unfortunately?!) in this life transition we're having a tendency to freak out about different things. He freaks out about the overseas part (being in India, the housing, transitions) and I freak out about the home part (selling the house and cars, all the packing and arrangements). So, one of us is always "freaking out". On one hand we can help calm each other down instead of egging each other on...on the other hand, we're never normal together. :)
