19 Days

Things are getting a little crazy. Not too too bad but all the same its a bit crazy. We are taking Doss' car in to ship tomorrow. It's kind of exciting. It will making this move all the more real.

I've started training my replacement. She is 41 has a daughter about 2 years younger than me and is really nice. I think she is going to be a fast learner and that all should go well for her. She is from California so she isn't quite used to how laid back we are here yet. I'm trying to get her ready for my departure by not only teaching her my job but by also letting her in on the office politics. It's always nice to have someone who can tell you who to be careful around and who will be your partner in crime.

I'm also sick! My boss was sick last Friday and now I too am not feeling well. There must be something going around because there are a few people out there who are not feeling so hot right now. I hope this cold doesn't get too bad. I don't want to miss any work. That way I get paid out for my leftover paid time off. All the extra money will come in handy later.

Things are going well. We really need to go through our boxes and stuff so we can figure out what to toss and what to donate. I'm starting to get really excited. I want to get everything packed already but we still have 3 weeks (19 days actually) so if I start packing now I'll have nothing to use before we leave. WOW!! 19 DAYS!!

Hey, have I mentioned lately that I am excited too? I can't wait for October to get here already.

Oh yeah, just an FYI- Dave and I have decided that we're just going to buy you guys a new Futon or Mattress or whatever instead of driving our old one all the way out there. So be on the watch out in PDX for some or something. Any thing else on the wish list? I've got the most random collection of things for you guys so far.

Sugar gliders are pretty cute.
