Limbo 85086….
ust when you thought I had disappeared…. I am back! The last few months have been insane, let me catch everyone up.
I have been de-cluttering my home for months and researching how to get myself and my cats to London in September. Let me just say my brain and wits hurt! Companies that tout helping you move across the pond and move your beloved pets are shameless. They will give you peace of mind for an outrageous price.
I have been applying for scholarships and financial aid…. More headaches! The government has slowed down the process for being awarded aid this year with “restructuring”. Ugh. Scholarship hoops are most invigorating! Then the waiting game to see if you have received pennies from heaven to pay for school attendance is enough to keep a gal from sleeping well.
My house was put on the rental market and snatched up in 3 days. Which meant I needed to get out, sell all items not moving to London, donate leftovers from moving sale, clean, and cross my fingers as I jump into this dream of shoe design schooling in London with both feet and eyes closed! ekkkkk….
Now we are current…. I am “squatting” in my friends house for a month before I leave for my parents home in Washington State for one more month. My flight is booked to London on Sept 12! Which means as of yesterday I am 2mo from jetting away. Holy poo!
So, my Limbo in AZ 85086 is finally nearing its end.

The Waiting Game…
hat does one do while waiting to uproot their lives?
Well…. Today… I made cookies to get rid of the Christmas sprinkles in the kitchen cupboard. One less thing to de-clutter before the move to London. Which is helpful, minuscule, but helpful since I am constantly making “Keep” & “Chuck” lists in my mind and on paper.
Oh… & I put a scarf on my cat too!

ere 2 There….
What is this here 2 there crap…. Well. Let me explain myself.
My name is Erinn and I need a change. I’ve been just existing for a few years now in Phoenix AZ and if something doesn’t change I will die of boredom. I do have fabulous friends here but i am the last of the singletons in my urban clan and my career has turned from enjoying to monotonous. So last year, at 31, I applied to The University of the Arts London for the Cordwainers (Shoe Design) program at The London College of Fashion and…. was accepted! I have deferred my acceptance for one year to figure out how to get from “Here 2 There”. So this coming Sept 2010 I start my new path to becoming a shoe designer.
Until that time I will blog about the insane process of a 30-something gal moving from Phoenix to London along with some fun shit to balance out the insanity of this monsterous undertaking.
I hope you take joy in my Lists & Scribbles to come….
