One Day Closer

Well, we have 3 things now that we didn't have when I posted last:

• Visa
• Flight itinerary - leave on Friday, January 20th
• Temporary home address - Unit 3, 77 Gardner Street, Como, WA  6152 

It's been a busy last couple of days since receiving this from our relocation folks.  They are coming on Monday to pack the house and Tuesday will take away our things in a 20ft container.  The house is quite empty already or just when I think it is, I find something else to clean out.  If I've learned anything from this process, it's that I want to live a much more simple life in regards to things when we get to Australia.  We by no means are pack-rats, but it really is amazing the things we keep.  Why?  It's absurd.  Speaking of things, we have a buyer for the travel trailer and a potential buyer (who's 99% sure they want it, but will let us know) for the jet ski.  Still no contract on the house, but I believe that right person is out there.  So all in all, things are working out.

Lindsey is spending time with her friends, we are celebrating Harrison's birthday early so the family can enjoy his special day with him and we are going to say "c-ya later" to our Good Shepherd family on Sunday.  Sam got in a full week of work and so did I, as a stay-at-home mom.  Not too shabby!

I wish I had something wonderfully exciting to tell you, but not yet.  I know the best is yet to come.  We are just hanging on at this point and trying to get ourselves to Friday.  Please pray for our family as we tie up our loose ends here and board our flight on Friday.  Also, please pray for Lindsey's mom.  After speaking (or should I say yelling) with her today, she really needs God to soften her heart.  I've been praying for this for years, but it just might be time to enlist the help of others! :-)

Enjoy your weekend,
Wendy
