I will get dressed quickly, wake and dress my little girl, shovel some breakfast down our necks and check my suitcases for probably the 3000th time... a few hours later we'll be sat on a plane due for Detroit, and saying goodbye to our life in England! In 27 sleeps time, we will waking up to the rest of our lives in America!!!<br> I'm so excited, but it's all kind of dulled by the amount of stuff still to do. So far the list is...<br> * Sell, give away or pack the entire house<br> * Travel down south and see my Dad<br> * Buy tickets to travel down south and see my Dad!<br> * Inform bank, landlord, post office etc.,<br> * Say goodbye to everyone<br> * Persuade darling daughter that she really doesn't need to take 35 cuddly toys with her, as we can buy more there<br> * Try an imagine how much stuff can fit into 10 3.5 cubic feet boxes</p> <p>Actually getting rid off all our worldly goods seems to be the biggest headache at the moment... some of the things you can't even give away! I wish I had a fairy Godmother somewhere, who could sort all this out for me in the flick of her wand! Anyway, onwards and Statewards!!! </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wellywench.blog.co.uk/2008/02/11/26_sleeps~3714327/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>packingusaleaving-ukhttp://wellywench.blog.co.uk/2008/02/11/26_sleeps~3714327/#comments
