Still Packing

We are still packing.  You would think we'd be ready and just sitting on our suitcases waiting for Jake's dad to come and shuttle us off to the airport.  Nope.  We've got plenty to keep our minds occupied before next Sunday the 13th when we'll be flying out of BGM one last time this year.  We are making progress on the long laundry list of 'To Do' items we have to check off.  I *think* we may have found some people to rent the house today.  We've got lots of people looking at the van and a handful looking at the Subaru.  Still no house for Eliot.  If any of you want a cat, Tinyeranch's namesake is in need of a home while we are gone.  I don't know how well he would do on the 30 hour flight then with quarantine it just gets ugly real fast. 

We received our Visa's today which was a huge relief.  I kept imagining one box that I forgot to check or the fact that I listed some family history on there that was maybe excessive.  I was sure we were going to be rejected.  I had been checking our return tracking number on the Visa's since Tuesday trying to see if it had been sent out.  I was really suprised (and very suspicious) that it was returned so quickly.  The fact that it was returned so soon must mean that there was something wrong and we were rejected.  Thankfully we were showing the house all morning so when the FedEx guy showed up I had completely forgotten that we were expecting them.  It's pretty cool seeing that insert in there with the NZ silver fern symbol on it.

No turning back now!
