So it begins...

So for those friends and family who want to keep track of my sweetheart and I when we finally make our way to a job in Poland, this is it...aside from Facebook.

But that's not for a couple of months.

A few weeks ago, we submitted our applications.  A week after that we were doing interviews with a man on the other side of the world.  3 days ago we sent in the preliminary paperwork to get our work visas started...

And the realization that everything familiar is about to come to a screeching halt hits me every time I go to work.  Every swipe of my finger on the clock is another counter toward punching in for the last time.  Every pallet and box I move seems to tell of 8 long, often miserable years of my life coming to a finality that terrifies me as much as it excites.  Each step is another taken toward the end of a long chapter.  I can't tell if those steps are being taken at a walk or a run because time seems to have started moving faster than a speeding TARDIS.

Even as other things in life loom closer that I am even less prepared for, I still can't believe that the one thing I've spent a third (or pretty much all of it if you count Elementary and High school) of my life working toward is almost here. 

The adventure is beginning...
