Hi there,
I'm in the process of applying to University of Glasgow for a second Master's degree, and then hopefully on to a PhD. My husband is a dual US/UK citizen with Scottish and English relatives. I'm a bit nervous about an overseas move - we have a dog and cat (no kids), and a full house because my parents have passed away and I have no other immediate family. I'm a bit nervous about putting all of my possessions (including family heirlooms going back several generations, artwork, photos, memories, etc) in storage for a year to 4 years until we find out if we'll stay in the UK or head back to the US. I wouldn't have this reservation if my parents were still alive and my things could be left safe with them, but the thought of my (and my family's) entire life going into storage has me a bit freaked out. That and moving an aging dog who has already survived one long overseas trip as a puppy. I'm not as worried about the cat.
Anyhow, any advice and reassurance would be appreciated! I'm sure that when and if I have been accepted to school that my husband and I will be on this page more frequently!
Thanks in advance!
