I lot more tears to come

So, the last time I wrote on here, I had been crying while I was going through things to pack for Alaska... and then my sister Amber read it and said she cried too..... JUST a heads up, I am sure there will be lots more tears to come..... I havent even moved yet....
anway.... this weekend was awesome... had tons of fun with friends, next weekend I will get to see some friends in Charleston, then my family.... i cant wait...
The strangest thing ever is that I talk more with some family members now then I have before... like my Uncle Ed, I stopped in his watering hole the other night and we talked forever, I never talk to him like that, I dont know if it that I am moving.... Or that he realizes I am grown up now.... I guess I will ponder that for awhile.
Well I need to get movtivated and head to town... so I will get off of here now.
Have a great week.
love ya

3:45 am

Well.... so its like almost 4am, and I cant sleep.... so what am I doing, well before I got online, I was packing. Thats right, I finally got motivated to get some more stuff packed up to ship to Alaska. And I have completed two toates tonight, and they have book been 50 pounds, which means I am 20 pounds under the weight limit... which is awesome, I totally thought I would go WAY over.
Anyway, the reason I thought I would post a message is that I was going through TONS of stuff I had not seen in years, and I found old old pictures. and you know of course I was crying. I found pictures of Kierstyn and Aaron as babies. Then after I was looking at the pictures I was thinking about 3 months ago I had Kierstyn in my car and I was telling her about my teaching job and it was like I was talking to another adult... WOW time has passed so much, and I can not even believe how grown up they are. Its so scary.
I just think what all I am going to miss while I am gone... not only just Kierstyn and Aaron but everyone and everything..... owell it will so be worth it.

so anyway... off that subject... my new favorite saying is " You take the life out of Fun..." So funny....
Have a good night, and hope to get some sleep.... long weekend ahead...
love ya

Well, I know it has been awhile since I left a message.. i have been really really lazy... You probably thought I was going to say busy.. but no, not busy just lazy. I am at my sisters in Mattoon tonight. Amber and I went to dollar tree and walmart, then out to eat with Jason and to the mall. Then came home so I could help Jason download songs on his MP3 playler... I am not sure what they are going to do when I leave.... LOL
Well anyway, I am going to get most of my stuff from Charleston this weekend, and then start packing up pretty much everything I own to ship to Alaska.....
I cant believe is like 36 days until I leave... thats so scary.... and I am so excited at the same time... Well i need to get off of here and finish up Jasons songs... hope you all have a great week...
love ya

12:29am

Well its really late at night, or really early in the morning depending on how you want to look at it. And I am still awake, I guess this is what you can do when you are not working. I have not had the right sleep schedule since we went to Vegas. owell.. It will all be messed up in less than 50 days anyway. I am really starting to look forward to leaving, but I am really beginning to realize how much I am going to miss here in Illinois.
Today I went to my sisters house to sort of kind of help them with their new pool, even though we didn't get it up, we now know where it will and will not fit in their yard, and we know we are meeting Wednesday to actually set it up. Kind of scary that it takes that much thought to decide those two things. We also went on a little drive to see all the water in Newton and Ste. Marie. I have never seen so much water in my life, it is so scary.
The worst thing I can imagine happened to some of my friends in Ste. Marie. They lost their home (cabin) in the flood. It was actually swept away by the water. The good thing is they were and are OK. I am going to find out more tomorrow, well hopefully... So please keep them in your prayers, it is Pam and Gary Goss. They are two really great people who would give their shirts off their backs to help anyone out, and now they may need help from others.
Lets see... what else, well I am going to get some pics tomorrow from Wal-mart, then next time I am in Charleston, I will scan them and get some pics on here for you all.. I have had people tell me I need to get some on here, so maybe next week I can do that..
Well for now, I am going to get off of here so I can go watch a movie and hopefully fall asleep at a decent time...
love ya
