It's September

It's September. We leave in September. Oh.My.Goodness!!!

Our "departure month" is here! It's no longer "in 18 months", or "6 months", or "3 months", or even "next month". It's this month! I can hardly believe it. I can hardly believe that we're actually being brave enough to attempt this. I realise that for some people it's not that brave at all, but for us, it's incredibly brave!

We've started out packing list, and bought the boys some new t-shirts and jeans on the weekend. I got some new shoes, which I need to break in before we leave. I've sorted out the bag thing - backpack for the plane, and an across the body bag for day to day sightseeing. Anyone who knows me, knows my bag fetish, and is probably both relieved that I've sorted it out, and doubtful that I will stick to this "bag plan" for long! However, I refuse to fuss any longer over such a small detail! I think we've got plenty of other things to be organising between now and the 18th!
