Finally ...

July 11 2006

Yeah!  Two steps forward and only one step back today. (and thanks for the remarks).


Ok, RE the shipment ... after the company "went silent" from Friday through Monday, they emerged with an answer on Tuesday ... I get 4 LDNs air shipped from Angola to Houston.  I get to combine the LDNs with storage items and then ocean freight up to one 40 ft container from Houston to Indonesia.  I get 3 cargo boxes for Decy and the girls.  I get 2 cargo boxes for me.


I don't know why I get two boxes .... I don't even want to try to figure it out.  Next step - pre-packing inspection (today), receive the empty boxes (today I hope), then finalize the inventory.


RE the medical aspects of the move - our medical dept yesterday sent an email to our Center of Excellence and advised that we are "healthy" (I suspect that was followed up with a clarification such as "healthy but insane")


Next steps - finalize school paperwork, finalize S. African VISAs for Decy/girls, continue purging household goods .... never a dull moment.

You know, if you weren't insane before this all started, it probably is likely that you are now! ;) That's okay, you'll just fit in with your sons even better!
