Yes, I should be packing but instead I decided to see if I could start a blog. I wasn't going to but since Facebook is probably out for me in China, a number of people have talked me into blogging. I guess it is a sensible option and I will add photos as I go along.

The new adventure started 2 months ago with a job offer - in Shanghai! It still seems like a dream and I have to pinch myself every so often. However, the emails seem to arrive just as I am sure I am imagining this exciting adventure, and I am reassured that it is for real!

Right now packing is for real - far too real in my mind! I have packed 27 boxes to ship and about 10 to store and there is so much more to sort through and pack. Note to self - stop hoarding like a pack rat!
