Hyperion Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) Hi ToitjieI am so glad to hear that your day has finally come and after all the struggles and sheer time that it has taken to get to this point, I think you'll be able to take a breath and know that it's finally happening.Both my wife and I are still appreciative on the assistance you gave us and we are wishing you an easy landing and settling in for the coming next phase.

Toitjie Posted November 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 damn these tears...why the hell am I such a cry baby? thanx guys...your posts mean the world to me. Reading the replies made me realise that I have made friends in strange places and that this forum was an absolute life saver. Just typing things as they happen is therapeutic and I truly appreciate everyone on this forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mittwelt Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Toitjie! Enjoy the last few moments here and especially enjoy the trip over to your new home! It is amazing how the packers pack absolutely everything they can find hey?Anyway, will be great to hear how your flight goes and how you settle in after the first few days. We are close on your tail an fully understand every single word in your post. We also have no appetite and seem to have the most horrific insomnia at the moment. The kid seem to excited and relaxed about everything and they at thoroughly enjoying the empty house to play in! They call it their clubhouse at the moment.My hubby is selling the last of our appliances that we decided to leave behind and I fear that my last week will be without a fridge at this rate. Best wishes to you and the family!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marilise Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Good luck Toitjie and family for the start of your new life!

Lyn Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Hang in there - you've been planning this for a very long time - this part of the journey gets a little bumpy, too much stress - then it smooths itself out. Monday will be five years for us in Canberra, it's been a wonderful place to settle and call home. I'm sure you will all fit in just fine, and enjoy all the area has to offer. And remember if I can help in any way please let me know. Bon voyage - and safe travels to the under down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
