stressssss

Yep, it's building all right. I keep telling myself that in a couple of months it will all be worth it - and it will, but in the meantime the cortisol levels must be through the roof.


We are busy making sure that we have all of the paperwork for our residence payment. It include the usual documents: birth and marriage certificates, passport photos,insurance/liability insurance/work contract etc. It will be a bit odd to be seen as an 'Auslander' I am sure, but no doubt we will be able to get over that ;0)


The lease on our home is near completion. When that is done we will be asking the relocation agent to deal with the utilities - thank goodness for someone who knows how it is all done. The 6th of December sees the removal company coming to do a visual estimate - that's only 1 week today. The house pendulums from scarily tidy to looking like it has been burgaled - at the moment it is somewhere inbetween, since we seem to have several EU laundry mountains taking over the home. When I finish this post I'll be strapping on the the crampons and taking up the ice axe to do battle.

    Just keep in mind that every person you see has worn leiderhosen at some point in their life. That should make it easier, no? :)

    Awww, that takes the fun out of it! You're supposed to just go ahead & apply non-applicable ethnic slurs to them, with their big ol' alpenhorns & all that. :)
