The race begins

Had a really busy couple of days. 2 days ago I went all the way to Ashdod to my dad's factory, coz he found someone that was interested in my car. After a few hours drive, and a few hours there- we sold the car. Then I had to drive the car to Tel-Aviv to give it to that person's daughter. Then I took a train back to Haifa. Was so tired that day that I actually fell asleep at 22:30...
Now, after selling the car- I have the money for all the arrangements that I have to do- and the race begins! Selling my car was almost the last task before my flight to China. I can't believe it's so close... 12 days... Its gonna go so fast...

Rob's already in Shanghai for a few days now. He started looking at apartments for us. He sent me pictures of 2 of them that are an option. The one is really nice and big and clean- but a bit more expensive than what we thought to spend (but we might spend that much if we really like the place), and on the 5th floor without an elevator. The second apartment is smaller, not as nice and not so clean, but in our budget and on 7th floor- with elevator. Dilemma...
I told him that I think he (or we, when I'm already there) should look at some more places. He's going to that area now- to see if he can find some more real estate agencies.

Last night I met some friends of mine from the virtual community I participate in. It was such a nice evening. We were 4 girls and lots of food (always good!). The thing that was really nice was that all four of us have a partner (either boyfriend or husband) from a different country.
When I joined the "Mixed Couples" forum online, I did it coz I really needed to talk to people that are in the same situation as me. I felt like even my best friends couldn't really understand what I was talking about- even though they are all supportive of me and very happy for me with this relationship. I needed something more than that. I needed someone that has actually been through all this before, or going through this right now. Since I'm a part of that forum- I feel a lot stronger, and a lot less confused about my life. Well... At least less confused about questions that regard this relationship.
