Well, 40 days until we leave for Hawaii for our recon trip. We are over the top excited. Where are we in our journey? Well, it is pretty much a done deal. Dar still refuses to give the final stamp of approval. He is far too practical for that. But all of our plans and daily doings are about us moving. So, here is what we have done so far:
- We have found all of our dogs really GREAT homes. One person said that if we end up not moving we could get Brody back, but we decided we couldn't do that because where he is he is basically living in the lap of luxury.
- I gave my letter of resignation at work. I gave them a 4 month notice. It takes a long time to find an executive for this area. We hope to begin interviewing right when I get back from Hawaii.
- I took my exam! Woo Hoo!
- Dar got all the rest of the stuff at the rental so I can get that on the market next week hopefully.
- Dar and I are jogging every other day and getting in shape and getting healthy to begin our new life.
So, as you can see we are definitely making strides to head to the islands. AND it will not be at all too early. It has been a really cold winter this year. I hear it is the same in Hawaii. Very wet. We have had snow here a couple of times. But the wind has been biting cold.
Dar has been working with a guy that is going to be building a house in Hawaii and wants to share a shipping container with us. Our travel trailer might actually fit in it! It will be a total squeeze, like 1 inch to spare squeeze. We will see. It would be a lovely solution for us. I have also contacted a shipper that might take it over there loaded for us. But she isn't emailing me back. But I will persevere and keep you updated.
Well, there you have it. A quick update. I should be posting more often now.
Sweet Dreams of Hawaii!
