We probably would have started on this about Sept. 1, but because we were planning to be away the week we were up north, we started discussion the last full week of August. There is a lot to do, but we have a lot of help too- though they often seem like inhibitors at times.
We were not happy with having the Ziggy and Zoe shipped over, so we have spent a lot of time looking into how to bring them with us in the plane cabin. After many calls and emails it loks like this is possible but only on 1 or 2 airlines. We will try to settle that soon, then other things will become more clear.
We had the moving people come and assess our shipments. We did not come with a lot- mainly 3 beds, a chair, a lot of cat stuff, some kitchen items and a few electronic items and a lot of odds and ends. However, we have furnished a 3 bedroom apartment very nicely in nearly 2 years.
It looks like we will need to leave a number of items behind or else pay fairly large shipping costs. Jim has been pressuring the movers and coordinators to look at it more carefully as they appear to be over estimating the costs based on information we have gotten from others who have been through similar experiences.
In any case we have a number of items we will sell so that is part of what we need to arrange quickly.
So, settling the cats move, selling items and sorting out how to ship various things appears to be the top priorities. However we are also going through Visa renewal and he have a number of other tasks to handle as well. The next 5 weeks look to be very hectic!
