Thanks everyone, can't imagine how it feels to those of you that have actually moved over when I am this excited over my visits! They keep getting a bit longer each time though so that helps! Hard to believe it... but I am all packed!! That's crazy for me, I am always up till three in the morning the night before I leave trying to get everything done! I am soo proud of myself!  ;D ;D Bet I am still up till three in the morning Tuesday night too excited to sleep!  ;)

wow silly, I am impressed! Good for you! I've never been able to be all packed at least 24 hours in advance. I have two weeks before I go and I am already freaking out because I have so much to do and so little time. You are my role model!  ;)

Haha a role model hey, now that's a new one for me! Though beware, early packing leads to adding more and more junk each day I look at my suitcases sitting there... I got on the scale with each of them tonight and they are still well under the fifty pound mark... oh oh that means I can add more... ;D I just realized Courtney is somewhere over the sea by now I bet... Have a great time!!!!

I can't hardly believe it, I don't think I'll make it through the full day of work tomorrow  ;) I had a hard enough time focusing on anything today and I know tomorrow will be worse. Right now I should be sleeping but I keep wandering around and messing around on here thinking of what else I should do! ::) Yippeeeeeeeeee one more night in my bed, a night on a plane, and there I am  ;D ;D

I am here (London)! It's a miracle that I made it though with all of the airport delays. I have never cut it so close! They were boarding my section as I ran up to the gate panting. Just one of those days where everything takes WAY longer than you planned for. I made it to the airport 2 hours ahead too!! Ah well. I made it. Now I can RELAX and have fun. :) :) :)

Are you only allowed 50lbs SillySnip? I flew British Air and was allowed 70 lbs.  ???

Glad you made it Courtney I hope you have a great time!!! As for the fifty pounds thats what it says on NWA site, for domestic and international now. I am not sure how strict they are with a few pounds but didn't want to pay to find out! I am well under the big suitcase has ten pounds to go  ;D

Well, I was right, I didn't last the day at work. Made it through half then decided to get out of there as I was being unproductive and had already caught everything up yesterday! So, all I have left of my madness is to mop the floors but like I said... I'll be up till three!  ::) ;D

Thanks everyone, can't imagine how it feels to those of you that have actually moved over when I am this excited over my visits!

I laugh and giggle...throw up...then laugh and giggle...then throw up again... ;D

Seriously, between the sorting and packing, the paperwork and seeing everyone for a final time...this is the most physically and emotionally draining time I've had since my divorce! But, I'm also nervous, excited, overwhelmed, scared...and most other extreme emotions you can name!

Thanks... mother nature decided to bring a bit of winter my way just in time for my flight  :-\\\\ So, looks like I will be leaving for the airport and hanging around there a bit longer than planned. As long as I get there it doesn't matter!!!  ;D

I am so pleased for all of you who have made it together, have moved to the UK.  I miss my UK fiance sooooo much and can't wait to see him again, even though it's only been 4 months!  I just hope the next time I see him will be it a forever marriage, and we will never have to go through this separation again.  I am applying for my visa soon (was going to do it before, but was told forms would change on 16 Nov!).  I am feeling really down and frightened right now, but I truly am happy for those who have made the transition.  Congrats to you all!
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

;D I made it! The weather wasn't so bad, the roads going to the airport were actually clear! My plane had mechanical issues, so was delayed, but I still had plenty of time to make my connection. Coming into Birmingham  was another story, had some issues at passport control which I will save for another day. Just sooo happy I am finally here! Catch you later  ;D
