Round and Round…

10 days.

Well, my proactivity has been down the last few days. I’ve been sidetracked by a particularly devestating attack by Aunt Flo – delightful creature she is. My carbohydrate craving has exceeded even my expectations. I fully expect to have regained MOST of what I’d lost to date. It’s not that I gave up, I’m still rather determined to MAKE my goal weight and I’m still gymming, I just need to regroup and get my shit together. Jimmy and I need to get serious and I think "together" is the key to this. I’ve always been better when the support has been ‘right there’ – at least until my natural instincts and motivation take over. I did it on my own before but I wasn’t anticipating moving overseas and any hint of stress (in the past) has always been my undoing. 

I went searching for travel insurance the other day. My travel agent (who really IS the shizz) couldn’t find any cheap insurance through her company (the cheapest being about $1400 for 6 months) and I was simply not prepared to spend a small fortune. Having said that, I have enough medical issues to worry about being in a country that would potentially make me sell my soul for treatment. 

Thank the lord for the internet. I found my insurance through Worldnomad.com (highly recommended) for $422 for the 6 mths. Now I feel MUCH safer! 

They also have travel journals and being that I’m travelling a little bit, I started one. This isn’t to say that I won’t blog here because I will, it’s just that the one over there is slightly more specific to the adventure.

*looks up* Yeah… that’s my travel journal addy. I have one entry there to date but the rest probably won’t happen until after I get there.

We’re getting down to the wire now. Tomorrow we’ll be down to single digit countdown and I still feel like I have a mammoth amount to do. I still have to finish clearing out the bedrooms (as Mum wants to turn both rooms back into guest rooms), take the rest of the boxes to storage, pack the last of the clothes that I’ve kept out and mentally prepare myself for the long haul flight. I was trying to plan  a farewell BBQ this saturday but I failed miserably because I never got the invites out and I feel so rushed for time that it’s probably not going to work out quite like I’d hoped. I’m not sure whether to keep the original plans or change things to a dinner out. Ack….

So I’m partially allowing the waves of excitement rush over me… but for the most part, I’m still focused on organising the rest of everything.
