Well, it's hard to believe that in 24 hours I'll be sleeping in my hotel bed in Phoenix, Arizona. The past couple of weeks have flown by, but a lot has been going on so that has helped.
I think I've packed everything that I will need. I'm sure I can just buy stuff if I need it.
I feel like I'm cheating the system a little bit by leaving Maine for a few weeks right as another Arctic Blast is due to hit. Tomorrow night the temperature is meant to drop to about -20c and in Phoenix it will be +10c overnight. I'm definitely not complaining, but I do feel like I'm missing out on a bit of the 'experience'. Everyone keeps telling me that February is the coldest month so I guess we will see. I just won't have the winter blues as much as everyone else with the time I had in Florida and now the time in Arizona.
I'm excited about the job training as well - will be interesting to see how/if there's any difference to the Australian way of doing things. Even back home there are always subtle differences between each person. Hopefully I'll be able to keep the habits I've already developed and the systems will be the same. I am more excited about meeting new work colleagues and really hope that I get along well with them.
Anyway, it's time for this little duck to go to bed and get some sleep ...
