12 Days and counting. . . .





Getting things organized ready to put in the back of my car.. I have these 2 great flat baskets that I have organized with small school boxes and they are working wonderful. My daughter-in-law Karen and I take off for Utah a week from this Saturday.. We will visit friends on Saturday and Sunday and then I report to the Missionary Training Center in Provo Monday Sept. 12th at 10:00 am..


I have been getting all the things crossed off my lists and feel pretty comfortable about my time frame and all that has to be accomplished before I leave..


Kristan will fly up to Salt Lake City on Friday the 16th and we are staying with my Aunt and Uncle in SLC that night and heading to DC the next morning. I got permission to spend a day with my grandaughter Marissa in Chicago on our way. We are excited to see he and spend some time with her.


They said my apartment would be ready when I arrive on the 21st or 22nd.. to move into. Kristan will stay with me and then fly home to Phoenix on the 23rd.


I am excited for my adventure to begin.. As I see friends this week, it seems funny that I won't see them again for 18 months, but I will be able to e-mail, facebook, call, skype and keep up my blog while I am gone.
