September has officially begun and with it begins the biggest adventure our family has ever embarked on. For those of you not already following the recent developments of our lives, we are relocating to Singapore later this month.
I can't tell you the exact date because we don't know. It hinges on the arrival of my employment pass and it should arrive any day now. Once it arrives, we are full steam ahead and our tickets will be booked.
To give everyone a sense of what the past few weeks has been like, I can only describe it as extremely organized chaos. We are being well taken care of by my company. That being said, well taken care of also means being taken care of by at least 10 individuals who have each been assigned to a small piece of our large move. We have contacts for everything, someone responsible for packing our house here, another responsible for finding us a home in S'pore, a realtor to rent our home here, language instructors, cross cultural trainers, a global banker, tax consultation......you get the idea, the list goes on and on.
The good news is things are moving along and we are all starting to get excited and I think a bit anxious. Trying to imagine that in a few weeks time we will be half way around the world where we know no one except the four of us is pretty overwhelming. We are all looking forward to the adventure and the opportunity.
Latest progress is Dannette officially has been accepted to the Canadian International School so she will be able to begin school as soon as we get settled.
We plan to do our best to keep this blog up to date, it should be a great piece of memories to look back on for us.
