Email received yesterday and package currently in KY. Anyone able to get a Saturday delivery/pickup and how did you manage? Tried to change the delivery online and it doesn't let me!

I called but they said I couldn’t pick up until after they’ve attempted delivery on Monday.

I'm trying to relax but I'm so scared of it being refused or something. I know my marriage is riding on the Visa. I never thought I would get married at 22 now I'm 24 but love makes you do crazy things. Hopefully everything works out. If not I'll be suicidal seriously.

Honestly, no matter what happens with the visa things will be OK. This move is very very hard on mental health, so please make sure to take care of yourself and ask for help if you need it. Visas and adapting to life in a new country is so stressful! But I have faith you will get the approval. Try to be patient!

Yes!  While I’m very excited, there is so much to wrap-up here to make the move happen. Anxiety is running high at the moment. I hope that is normal!  I’m sure when I’m on the plane, I’ll be able to take a deep breath for the first time in a long time!  Moving countries is way harder than I ever expected and I haven’t even arrived there yet.  ::)

Do you have an anticipated move date (thinking positive thoughts on the visa being approved, of course!)?

As long as it's approved probably mid June. I still need to give a 2 weeks notice at work, but I would like to be there before our anniversary on June 25th!

I'm still worried enough about getting approved so haven't had the stress of thinking about moving yet, but I can only imagine how you're feeling. I hope you're able to wrap everything up with as little stress as possible and have a relaxing trip to the UK!

I’ve moved to a bunch of different countries and each move is stressful in its own way but please find some kind of down time to take care of yourself or you won’t be good for anyone.  Good luck😎

Great advice, thank you. Luckily I don't have home sales/renting situations or anything of the sort to worry about and I only need to take what I need and have a place to leave the rest. I know I'm very fortunate and that will give me some down time when my time to move does come!

Completely normal, don't worry!  :)

Making lists will help tremendously! Good luck with all the preparation!  :)
