A little bit stressful

This is our last night in our house. Nick and our friend M loaded up the truck and drove it away, some to Nick's mum's place where our stuff will be stored, awaiting shipment to the US when we're ready, and some more over to M's place where we will be staying from tomorrow night through Christmas, until we leave on our great adventure.

As the kids were going to sleep tonight, I was sensitive to the possibility of them being a bit stressed out and sad about saying goodbye to our house. Maya was just plain thrilled that from tomorrow we're having a big giant sleepover. Nate says he feels fine. Eli has been weeing the bed the last few nights though, which he hasn't done for months, and I'm not sure if that's a physical thing or the stress of watching things slowly disappear from the house until nothing is recognisable, and not having the language to talk about it yet. Poor little guy.

Monday afternoon, we will officially be out of this house. We're going to have another busy few days until then, but from Tuesday we'll be getting the motorhome ready, and at a leisurely pace, no deadlines. We can hang out, swim, be without stress, laugh and play, take our time, NOT PACK. We will be packed and ready, having done it all in one big multi-purposed packing session. From Tuesday. I'm looking forward to Tuesday.

Now if we could only sell our car, we might actually have some money to spend travelling around Australia...
