Not having the proper window coverings results in you waking up at 7:30 to the sun. My dad showed up today. I went to the airport to pick him up. It's a rather odd change of sides, normally I'm the one flying into the airport. We went to find our trailer that we will be pulling full of my valuables. We ended up not having to drive an hour one way to get the trailer instead they hooked us up and gave us a bigger trailer for the same price. We got that taken care of and also started packing a bit. There was shopping for essentials and reservations for a hotel. It was a busy day. Also cold, very cold. Of course it's going to be freezing cold the weekend I move.
Saturday in Review
(***editor's note: Usually this is where I comment on the comments I have gotten over the week or emails I have received about my blog...there haven't been any so I'm just going to recap with additional details. Maybe one day I'll have comments and emails from the masses but right now it's not happening.)
*Sunday night was my going away dinner. Those who showed up were amazing, but not the ones I thought would show up. I got a lot of late minute can't make it's. It was mostly made up of Best Buy people. It was kind of depressing and some of the ones I wanted to show up didn't.
*My last Phoenix Basketball game was Monday. Kind of sad. I will miss those games.
*Tuesday was a historic day, a day of goodbyes and hellos. I wonder if George W. Bush felt the same way I feel now about leaving Green Bay. We both spent over 5 years in a city making friends. But we said hello to our first African American president...yay Obama!
*Tuesday was also the day I had to say goodbye to my rock star. I also finally threw my shoes, i should say sandals, up into the tree signifying my graduation from Green Bay.
*I still have questions that aren't going to be answered anytime soon about everything. But it did lead to one thing that I haven't been relying on recently....having faith!
*Wednesday was a busy day. I went to lunch with Tara and almost cried because of the sweet and kind words that she said about me. I got a bracelet from her that is on my wrist right now, it reminds me constantly to do what I do "living life".
*Also on Wednesday I got to meet Taylor's little sister and hang with him for a good 3 hours. We became family in the little astro van of mine. I felt like the big older sister they don't have, hehe. It was our last time at Old Chicago together probably ever. I have pictures...ha
*And finally on Wednesday night Jess and I went to Marley and me and cried for a good half and hour in the movie theater. Yup it was that sad
*Thursday was a day driving and saying more goodbyes. I haven't really cried yet about this whole thing. I still haven't to this day. I have a feeling when I get home to north carolina and breathe for a second I will just have a giant meltdown which leads to...
*getting a mom hug! Although they don't fix everything having her there while dealing with this will be nice.
*Finally the cat got out of the bag about one of my fears moving down to Greensboro. My fear of not making any friends besides the ones that my mom knows. I'm still scared and won't know how it'll go for awhile down there.
Tomorrow is going to be crazy, a day full of packing, loading and saying goodbyes. Oh did I mention it's supposed to be -3 out, this move is just getting more fun by the minute!
