As I write this, my apartment is muggy, my bed is covered in suitcases and the various things yet to be placed in them. Had a lovely last dinner at the Republic with Kate, and a couple end of evening beers with Nick, Laura, Timmy, and Kelly. It's hard to look at the dogs, as it will be a few months before they can fly out to join me... What will I do without my faithful furry friends. As Emily is coming with me for the first week, I am able to push off my anticipated missing of her for another a little bit....
I am so excited! Exhilarated. Nervous. Downright scared, and hope I will FEEL all the things that the beginning of this journey, and the end of my journey here (for now, at least) will bring, though already, many moments are quite overwhelming.
Off to hopefully finish packing, take the dogs for a brief, late night romp, then off to sleep...
Whoo hooo!!

We're all with you, as Jean Valentine said, may you, "pull the elements. . . around you, like a blanket." So much love for your journey.
