Scotty Posted August 6, 2015 Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 Yeehaaa I am off and running. I had to login through skill select and through to my immi account for it to register. I am in no hurry though so I am going to use 59 days haha. I want to drag the process out as long as possible due to having to be there within a year. I have my fingers crossed that the price of oil is going to go up by then!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derbygirl42 Posted August 9, 2015 Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 Hey congrats Jen Pen! It's a month now till we go and today I've woken up and feel jittery. It's a strange feeling we are all excited to be going but I'm consumed with guilt for leaving behind loved ones I know it will pass and it's normal but today I just feel sad. I'll get over it by having a sharp talk with myself ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenPen Posted August 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 @Derbygirl42 oh wow it has come around quick - I am not surprised by those feelings we all get them at some point!! I have felt terribly guilty these last coupld of weeks and massively today. My parents have sold their house and quicker than planned, as they will have nothing down this way once we have moved so they are moving on Weds.....the children keep saying to them they will miss them, I will find it hard them not being around the corner and its the reality that they are doing this because we are going - big wobbles today as both my parents cried!!! It is natural...but it will be better for us all long term and I have to have this stern talking to, to myself on a regular basis haha!! Hope you feel better soon - big hugs!! What date do you fly lovely? x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derbygirl42 Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Hey Jenpen sorry not been on for a few days. Thanks for your kind words, I'm ok again now it was just a temporary blip but honestly am dreading the final goodbyes My sister emigrated 4 years ago and it was awful the day she left. I've not booked flights yet as an waiting to exchange this should be this week and the plan is to fly on the 7th September. For now I just need to drag myself through the next 7 days at work and then at least I can have more time to organise everything else! So wish I'd finished work earlier but with not having a job to go too wanted to work as near to my leaving date as possible! What about you when are you planning to go out ?

X That's ok no worries m'dear! Glad you are feeling better, it is bound to have its ups and downs I had a big downer yesterday as my parents moved away (a direct result of our choices) so it is the first big hurdle to this becomign a reality! Oh it will be ok and think you have done the right thing working to the last moment although chaotic it will work ok in the end and you will soon forget it!! aaah 7th Sept - lucky date for me we are planning to go in Nov - likely around 25th or something similar....what area have you got your eye on sweet?
