Well, the visa has been issued, matriculation is in process, packing is nearly done...and so many other loose ends are finally coming together (after a long and panicky period of time!) and I am getting very excited and nervous. :) I am leaving Monday evening, February 1, to arrive Tuesday afternoon, the 2nd. Less than a week away and I'm starting to feel the surreal feeling ebb away and realize that it is all actually happening!
God has really blessed this whole thing along the way. All the pieces have fallen into place and it has only been possible with the help of all of my family and friends who have contributed to this once in a lifetime experience. Thank you to all of you for prayers and help in this. Next time you hear from the Lifted Kilt, it'll be on the other side of the pond!
