... but I'm only just coming down from the adrenaline rush that hit me today. I had another bad night, but thankfully I improved throughout the day anyway, so when I took a short nap I felt like a new person! Still fighting off some side effects, but I feel human again, and I'm thanking God with all that I am.
We've had a productive day today ~ Steve managed to return a lot of his kit to work, we've scheduled Tom the Baby-sitter (who just happens to be AMAZING with kids) for four hours tomorrow, when we'll also discuss several more days when we'll have him over. He'll be able to give the kids his undivided attention so that Steve and I can bust through our jobs, and we have our plan all ready for tomorrow. Feeling incredibly optimistic at the moment ~ we'll see how much we actually get through tomorrow.
Steve is off in the morning to Britannia, our moving company, to finalise some last minute details and sort out our queries. Then after lunch, Tom arrives to take Kid Control, and the boys are REALLY excited about it! They know him from the crèche at family happy hour in the officers mess, where they have gone a few times over the past year. He's a lot of fun so they probably won't even notice we're busy, and that makes us feel a whole lot better!
The excitement is tangible now ... the boys have a paper chain counting down how many sleeps until we fly, and for the airplane obsessed pair of them it's almost too exciting! I can't believe that in just over a month we'll be in our new apartment with all our things with us by then ... when I think of how fast the past few months have gone, I'm sure I'll blink and be there tomorrow!
I must get some sleep and try to make up for the three day deficit I'm up against right now ~ it's a very full schedule tomorrow!
The ball is rolling and we're just holding on tight for the ride from here ... WOO HOO!
love, Jen
We need a break, seriously. And I'm just about to lose my patience with my ill health ~ if it's not one thing, it's another, and I certainly don't need oversights like THAT to make things worse. I'm really, really upset.
