Updating

The trip has been delayed a bit. It should be at least two months at this point before we actually, officially move. Whenever we are scheduled to be in the Philippines, the girls and I will leave Arizona 2 weeks or so before that point, so we can have a long visit back east before flying over. So, we could leave here in as little as 6 weeks, or maybe 2 months or maybe 3. The goal is still very much to have the office there started by early summer, though, so it shouldn't be any later than that.

In the meantime, I've been spending the last few days shifting out of full-blown panic mode with our preparations, which has basically consisted of me telling myself over and over to not pack ANYTHING ELSE all day long. I'm trying to figure out what/if I need to unpack, and get the stuff that is already in boxes organized a little better so we can still function in this house for a couple more months.

I know I will be unpacking some of the school stuff so we can get back into doing that again. I don't want the kids to have a 4+ month "summer" vacation, because they are going to forget too much stuff AND they are going to make me crazy with all the unstructured time. Bleah. My mind is completely switched off in regards to school stuff. I've been trying to get back into that mode since Monday and it's just not working.
