Hey Kylie
This is when your learning curve is at its steepest!
I also found the best part of the 'My Journey' kit was the diary - I wrote all my notes, questions, contacts, expenditure in there. It's been fantastic.
The other thing I found useful (there are lots of other things as well...) is the Zonta pillow.

Take care. We will all be thinking of you
