I've contemplated creating a blog so many times before, but the timing never seemed right or we were going about 100 miles per minute with life happenings... how does that always seem to happen anyways??
Then today came.
That's when I found myself waiting alone for about an hour and a half in our boxed up apartment. No music, no television. Silence. Only my computer and a wee internet connection to keep me breezing through our moving "to do" list. Kinda figured this was as good of time as any to jump start my blog. So here it is!
If they could only invent time travel, then moving would be a breeze. But alas...it's not. I've spent so many hours these last couple weeks trying to figure out the items that "I can't live without" and must take in our checked luggage when we fly out tomorrow. These items will be with us from now until December when hopefully we get our residency visas and find a place. Things like my favorite clothes, shoes, yoga mat, the comfortable underwear, yoga teaching books, toothpaste, gluten free oatmeal...etc, etc. Lol, okay the oatmeal was an impulse buy because I'm pretty sure they won't have it in Abu Dhabi! (and also our brand of toothpaste, razors, shampoo...so we had to stock up.)
Now we're sitting on the floor plowing through the remainder of our to do list and trying our hardest to think of anything we might be missing while the movers finish up. So tired.
And the movers are off. Just finished cleaning our apartment and Joey loaded our friend Kesh's car up with all of our "need to get rid of things". So annoying how much money is wasted when you move. All those cleaning supplies and food. Well, atleast we found a good home for them. Sweet Kesh.
Okay, now off to the hotel and hopefully dinner and a movie tonight to decompress.
Cheers friends!
