2009 and we finally get to say......

Since deciding to move to Canada in 2007 and then being given a 42-48 month wait has always been hard to tell people that we are emigrating and they then ask us when......when we've said 'oh 3-4 years time' they've looked at us as if we're mad and usually replied with 'oh a lot can happen in 3-4 years!!'. Well finally we can now say that 'we are emigrating next year!!!'
2009 looks like its going to be a really busy year for us....
  • I'm finishing an MA course at the end of January and start the final one in February. I'm hopefully going to tutor a new course starting in October
  • Eldest is doing workplacement with the British Council and possibly Love (advertising company). He's also starting University in October....possibly Northumbria
  • Middle daughter completes AS levels this year and starts driving lessons
  • Youngest daughter moves into final year at prep school
  • My dad turns 70 and hubby turns 50!!!
  • CHC should send the 90 day letter out in the summer.
  • Should spend one last xmas with all the family

I spent last week finding documentation for CHC....just so we're ready. I reckon I must be a secret hoarder as I have kept past pay slips, P45's, P60's and job descriptions for the last 10-15 years!!!!

Caught hubby today looking at houses on MLS....looked promising!!!
