Grad School in Germany

Well, in case anyone was curious, I have sucessfully applied to several MBA programs.  I am excited to announce that I have decided to get my MBA in Germany.  I have been accepted to the Handelshochchule Leipzig Graduate School of Mangement and will most likely be attending the program in the fall!

This is a big step for me and my family.  First, and most obvious, we are moving to Germany at the end of August.  I can only guess what I need to plan for that I have no idea about.  Yep, I am a blind man trying to find the corner of a round room!  Secondly, I am still apprehensive about financing this whole charade.  I have some scholarship money coming, and am still waiting to hear on another scholarship, but I still need to come up with the bulk of the remaining funds through student loans.  I am pretty sure work will be difficult, if not impossible to come by for either Charmy or me, so loans will need to cover the difference.

I am confident it is all going to work out.  I think that doors of opportunity open and all of the "impossibles" fall into place when something is meant to be.  Not to say that I am not going to try my hardest to make sure this happens, but a certain amount of it is out of my control...why fret over something I have no ability to change.

I'll try to keep updating on this big change...

Oh, a couple of items that need to be taken care of before this whole thing happens:
 
  1.  I need to sell our car.  Its an 04 Corolla in great shape, if you are interested!
  2.  I need to sell our bedroom furniture - $200
  3.  I need to sell our piano - It is an old Edward Healey Player Piano...Best offer goes!
  4.  I need to sell our home in Houston.

If there any takers out there, lets make a deal!
