Twas a lovely 4th of July weekend with the fam. Minus the Bradster. He's still determined to be a Canadian for a few more weeks! :) We saw some mandatory fireworks and had the mandatory picnic. The hamburgers, watermelon, and big family game time came the next night. Try Apples to Apples with 9 Gangels!! Today was the Wimbledon men's championship, which lasted for an exciting 7 hours! I'm not much of a tennis fan but I think we were all on the edge of our seats for this one. The Gardners left and I took off back to camp.
So here I am at the beginning of week 2 out of 3. I missed these girls - I can't wait to swing Maggie tomorrow! However, I will definitely be done parenting for awhile at the end of week 3. :) And now the countdown begins - first for days till I see Brad, then days till I leave. Honestly, I'm getting a little nervous. One of my main fears is that I'll forget something or I will pack wrong but as I was telling a friend earlier, I think that is a secondary fear, behind which is hiding my real fear of simply the unknown. Oh, AND the fact that this is PERMANENT!! *sigh* But I'm ready. There may be things that I will forget or have already forgotten, but I am so ready for this. I'm attacking things completely differently in my head than I did this past semester and I can't even really explain it. It's just different this time.
Anyway, however ready I am emotionally, we have yet to see how ready I will be physically! I only have 5 more days in my house! I haven't even bought suitcases yet. Yikes. Seriously, I'd better have thought of everything else beforehand so that packing is a cinch or I might be pulling another last-night-in-Bolivia all-nighter!!
Yeah, so, anyway, I got really hyper in the car coming up here and called all my friends but nobody could talk so I just blasted some Wicked and looked like a America's Got Talent wanna-be practicing when she thinks nobody is looking. Yeah.
And I would just like to say that Maple Brown Sugar Life cereal now rocks my world. Just saying, is all.
The end.
