This waiting is horrible

So, it is now the last week of February and we are still waiting to hear back from our Case Officer. We heard back really quickly from our aus police checks, and they were sent to our CO two and a half weeks ago. The waiting feeling just can't be described, other than being completely frustrating, annoying, horrible, tense, emotional and EXCITING!

Both of our work contracts are due to end at the end of March and we hoped to be able to jet off to aus after that. We have now decided that it is all getting a bit close (with no visa) so will now aim to get to aus for the end of April/beginning of May. This will of course mean extending Dan's contract, and Becks finding short term work (or having a month off, which Dan has yet to be persuaded about). Horrible making the decision to push it back even further but going after Easter was just starting to look more and more impractical.

Fingers crossed we hear something soon. I can't stare at my phone much more (waiting for the call from our agent).

Arghhh.
