Mixed Emotions

So my friends...


We have just over 4 weeks until we set off and I am in emotional turmoil! Things are heating up. Surely this is meant to be oh so very exciting and I should be on an emotional high, but no. Not yet. Don't get me wrong, I know how unbelievably luck I am to have this once in a life time opportunity and the excitement is still there- it just isn't bubbling at the surface of my emotional pot! Things have been hard- it is like being stuck in limbo, I am just waiting around to go thinking about all the things we need to do before we set off, all the people I need to see and say goodbye too, the money issues, moving out of my apartment,trying to lose a bit of weight so I don't get harpooned from being mistaken for a beached whale, arguments about how to tackle countries etc etc etc. Stressed is not the word! The stress has really made its presence known upon my skin! Eurghhhh! 


However I have just booked a mini-break to take my niece and nephew to Center Parcs- went a little over budget but I won't see them for a year and will miss their birthday's and Christmas. Mike kindly got me a couple of spa treatments for whilst I am there to chill me out as a graduation present. 
My task of the day is to plan for New Zealand. We are hoping to meet up with a very good friend of mine there who moved there about 2 years ago. Really looking forward to that. 


Ciao
