It is nice just to take a minute to blog. I have millions of things running through my head and I have been going a thousand miles a minute, so it feels good just to stop and regroup. There are so many things I want to just lay out on the table about the many emotions I am feeling as I get ready to move, but who has time for all that!?

Last night I went to bed at midnight because Will “made” me. I really needed to stay up another 3hours and had the adrenaline to do so, but Will thought that I needed to rest- that and the fact that my high strung disposition may drive him crazy. So I lay in bed for like an hour just thinking of so many things…

I was thinking about this Seinfeld I watched the other day and at the beginning he was talking about moving and how when a person moves, all they see or think about are boxes. Such true “wisdom” from Seinfeld. I remember when I was little how much fun a simple cardboard box was. I remember my dad telling stories about him and his brother and older sister ganging up on their youngest sister and throwing her in a box and shaking it all around and stuff. So of course, as little kid I had to try it. It was actually fun in some crazy way. Then, who could forget the makeshift house almost every kid has made in a box!? Hours of built-in fun from a simple box. Boxes are great fun for kids, someone should market them! ha ha. Well, now that I am preparing to move, boxes are all but fun. I have come a long way from the “please join me in my ‘house’ for a tea party” days. My life is revolving around getting things in them and putting them somewhere.

Today is my last day at work. I am sad. I actually liked going to work. I work in the transcript office of my university. We have had so much fun up there. All of the girls I work with are taking finals this week, so I haven’t gotten to see them. Carly came by yesterday and dropped my off a present, which was really thoughtful. Sheri, the lady I work for, got me stationary and a really cute journal. I have a feeling that will come in handy- the internet is not up at my parent’s house yet so there will be no bloging for a while and I will be by myself until I get a job, so I will have lots of time to write about my new venture. I brought up my plants and candles that I can’t take along, so I will have a “love fern” growing in the office for the girls to remember me.

I don’t even really know what else to blog, everything is moving, moving, moving, and hearing about that stress is stressful in itself, and since that is all that I know right now, I guess that is all I can write.

Hopefully when we get over there we will get the internet and I will be able to write about the crazy new days of adjusting to a whole new world and lifestyle. All I can hope is that Will and I get our own apartment soon and we won’t have to life with my parents for long- which is a LONG story and too confusing to explain. To put it short, until I get a job, Will and I can’t have our own apartment (the comapny pays for it and since I don’t have a job they wouldn’t pay for me to live there) so I will have to live with my parents and hopefully Will will get to live with me too. I love my family, but they are already driving me crazy. (this may be a whole long blog for some other day) My parents have created a monster with my sister. I guess now that she has been the “only“ child for a while their relationship with her has taken a 180. She has this manipulative “power“ to get whatever she wants anytime. I just don’t think I can live with them and watch them constantly give in to her when they have the power to say, “no.“ Like I said, this is a whole other blog.

I’m hoping that maybe tomorrow night or Friday afternoonWill and I will be able to take a short break and enjoy eachother. We had all of these plans to go eat at the places we won’t be able to when we move there, and go shopping for the many things we needed to take with us, but everyone wants to see us before we leave- which in itself is stressful- so I think I am just going to surprise him and buy movie tickets on Friday, no matter how much we still need to do.

Well, this may be my last blog for the next couple of weeks! Thanks for listening and I will be sure to blog about all the new experiences in Kuwait as soon as I can!!
