Leaving soon...

It's 9:58 pm (oops I mean 2158 silly me) November 29, 2005. Bob should be home from work about 0300. I am doing last minute laundry and the laundry tubs are stopped up and overflowing all over the cellar. The 2 decent bras I own are, of course, sopping wet in the midst of a cycle. Grrrr...

Last visit I was ready a week ahead of time, had my list, had the car cleaned, was totally on the ball. I have no idea what has happened to me. Some issues at work had me all in a tizzy today, the problems with Bob are just eating me up and I think last time I had no idea how long of a drive it was and now this time I know and I'm dreading that loooong ride. I am so disorganized this time. :(

Holly is all excited to see Ty. She's at a concert tonight, some guitar player from the Grateful Dead. I still have no idea if for sure he's coming back with us, and, if so for how long. One of my Army Moms ...so sweet...lives 40 minutes from Ft. Lewis and has offered to "mother" him, invite him to supper, keep in touch with him, etc while he's there. Her son is in Kuwait and she said she "has plenty of mothering to go around" and if she can't be with her soldier, she'd be happy to help another mom's soldier. These ladies are great!

I'm nearly sick to my stomach because I still have so many loose ends to wrap up here. I can't wait to see him. Holly bought him a bunch of goodies today after I picked her up from work. Chocolate covered pretzels from Sarris, barbecue chips, nerds, peachies, jerky...I got him a pez, some gum, a nerd rope and something else I can't remember right now.

Well, I really should go check the tubs and try plunging them again and wash my hair and finish packing and ...and..and...
At least I got his brownies made :)

Giess mext time I write it will all be over and I'll have stories to tell!
