We are nearly out of our apartment and moved into my parents’ house.  We turn the keys in tomorrow.  Nearly everything has sold; thankfully all of the big stuff that we wanted gone.  Now we have to sort through our “coming with” boxes/pile to clarify what is really needed and if we will just ship it all right away or if there will be a phase 2 shipment.  Brandon has been looking for jobs, but according to the recruiters; it is early yet so he will be patient.  Our destination has changed because of his job opportunities; we are moving to the Sydney area instead of Brisbane.

We have out tickets bought, the cats booked, and are downsizing rapidly.  We made it through the Holidays with all its food, fun, and merriment.  Said some farewells to our church family and relatives.  Now to work on the details; where we are going to stay, getting the cats to Sydney, my resume, finding apartments, and shipping our stuff. So much done and a lot yet to go. It will be a busy few weeks!
