Cross-world Move Countdown

Today it is 40 days until we depart for Asia.

It has been a long time coming this time - just over 3 years, which is a record for us. Before this, we've never stayed one place - one country - longer than 2 years!

It has come super quickly. Just "the other day" I was counting from a comfortable 100 days... Suddenly all those things you put off to the last month are crowding around demanding attention. And all the things we thought we'd have done months ago? They're still crowding around too.

But, we do start this countdown with one huge thing crossed off the huge to-do list - our house is rented out!
And with many blessings to count in the process:
-posted an ad Tuesday evening and received a deposit Wednesday evening, less than 12 hours later
-sold a fair bit of our furniture to the renters so we don't have to move it out - including the piano
-start date is immediately after we leave, so the house doesn't sit empty at all

And/but now, to work:
Preparing
Goodbying
Managing
Sorting
Pricing
Selling
Cleaning
Storing
Choosing
Packing
Using Up


We're aiming to post daily with a tidbit/snapshot of our last 40 days. Enjoy!
