Stress levels rising.....

minuet, 4 June, 2013 at 05:09 Posted on Planning 0 1

I think I need to write this down in an attempt to reduce my rapidly rising stress levels! It's 3 weeks until we fly back to the UK to get married, 4 weeks until W-Day. We found out yesterday that my H2B has landed a fantastic new job which means a move from Australia where we are now to the middle east. They want us there by 19th August?.

We get back to Oz on 29th July after our honeymoon. Yep...... That gives us 2 weeks back here before we have to up and move. So all in all I now have 5 weeks to move our lives to another country.

I'm trying not to think of the logistics involved in packing to come home for the wedding, 2 weeks around Europe on honeymoon (with 2 weddings to attend as guests), and then back here to pack up our entire lives ready to move countries 2 weeks later?.

I still haven't done my table plan, orders of service and assorted other wedding tasks. I'm now trying to get quotes for international movers, listing our cars for sale and looking at accomodation in Qatar. And breathe.........?

    I'm moving abroad a week after the wedding in August- not so far as you and with more notice, but I can empathise to an extent. My OH has actually gone out earlier to start his job and I have been living here to sort everything out and to give myself a bit of time. Is this something you would consider? I know it's not ideal to live apart so close after marriage but even a couple of weeks might make all the difference between sanity and chaos!

    If not, get the quotes and get them to pack up everything for out as well as ship it out. Surely his company can help find some temporary accommodation for when you go, anyway?

    Good luck!What an adventure. I am sure you will work it out though!
