Last Day in Wellington

My thanks to everybody for their comments and support :) It's been a wild few days but I am off on the ferry at 1.30 tomorrow morning, Christchurch here I come. Regan offered to come with me, which is such a relief because I haven't done a drive like this before and I was (am) freaking out slightly :)

I went for a drive round the bays yesterday, it's one of my favourite bits of Wellington and I will miss it. The rest of the day was spent packing and dragging heavy boxes full of stuff to Jenni's (thanks Jen!).

It actually amazed me how much stuff I have... I took heaps to Jen's, I'm giving the Sallies another car-load, plus there's an armchair, couch, chest of drawers, table and chair, desk and desk chair, fridge, microwave - most of the stuff I'm taking is clothes, books or art supplies. And it's still going to be a game of tetris to fit it (and the cat) into the car tonight...

I hope Ruby can handle the journey... I went to Animates and got a big, solid-sided crate for her with an internal water dish and mattress and stuff. It's big enough for her to curl up in and stretch out in, so hopefully that will be ok. I got this herbal sedative stuff for her, apparently it works to calm animals down without negative side affects, so we shall see how that goes :)

Now all I need is some herbal sedative for me... :)
