I won't believe it until we're at the airport boarding the plane. However, we did get some more suitcases. I've packed my first bag and will start on another after dinner. I need to trim down Little Man's clothes and get the 3T's out of Lady Jane's clothes and then pack. It's kinda weird because what I need to do is pick out 6 outfits for everyone and pack the rest. It's a reverse vacation. And I need to make sure I have room for the clothes that we are wearing. I did laundry this week so there's very few clothes in the hamper. I picked up a bottle of concentrated ALL to take with just in case the sheets and I have issues. We've got a temporary apartment until we figure out our housing situation.
Phil is right I found an apartment that meets all our needs, furnished, four bedrooms and appears to be surrounded by a cemetary. God, I wish I hadn't seen Poltergeist. "You didn't move the bodies!!!!" Oh, and Night of the Living Dead, Return of the Living Dead, and there's always Buffy. I told Mom that the worst that could happen is they would get the people on the 1st and 2nd floor first, which will at least give us some warning. Phil thinks part of it might be a community garden, but the big plot is definitely a cemetary. http://tinyurl.com/yrlu8d Judge for yourself (sorry, Google Maps gets a little carried away with it's url). But it's one of those apartment buildings. The kids could have a lot of fun playing in the graveyard. Gives a whole new meaning to the game we used to play as a kid "Ghost in the Graveyard". Hide n seek at night. Anyway it's about .4 miles from the school we're sending the kids too.
I'm not holding my breath but it seems fairly certain that we will be leaving Friday for England. Woot!

Oooh! Considering you are heading to the jolly old England, you should check out "Shaun of the Dead". That way you can at least laugh while the zombies eat your brains!
