Packed

Mercy.  I am all practically packed up.  Well at least, every thing that needs to be on the truck is...on the truck.  A lot of the clothes are still in the closet but I know some good helpers that will get them downstairs with me. 

Its been a lonnnnnng day.  It is my poor daddy's birthday and he has helped me all day long.  If there's one thing he's good for it's heavy lifting.  I'll save the packing story for the day that I share about my apartment but let me just tell you....we went today to get the 10 ft. truck for my move.  Welllll the Budget people only had a 16 ft. truck but told us that they wouldn't charge us for the additional 6 ft.  Well, are you going to pay for the difference in gas?!  Duh...that's a no.  But what did we find out?  Oh yeah, definitely needed the 16 footer.  Embarrassing?  Slightly.

I had a surprise email this week from a sweet friend.  I think she knew I was full of anticipation.  She quoted Christopher Robin and Dr. Seuss.  Definitely a boost. :)  And then a few originals that I know will also be encouraging to a few of you out there.

Words of Wisdom
1. Do your best
2. Make friends with your neighbor
3. Mind your p's and q's
4. Be yourself


You are really going to be a natural because you are naturally an individual.  You have been working towards this since you had a little muffin cut (it was actually a skater cut and this part only applies to me...sorry :)) and were in Mrs. So and So's class in kindergarten.  You have everything you need.  All the tools to succeed are already packed and ready to go.  So get up and go.

You know who you are.  Thank you.  I love you. 

Everything is packed.


I'm ready.
