Takin' a break from packing
I got home, I believe it was, about 2 from work, sat down and glanced at what emails had come in, then got right up and preceeded to get busy on what I knew HAD to be done. I had done NO packing at all for this 4 day trip, that we are leaving on tomorrow. So....what time I had this afternoon, and what time I'll have tomorrow, (luckily I don't have to work...Aaron is going out of town for the weekend too), I knew there was alot to do in a short amount of time. I wanted to try and get as much done today as I could, because tomorrow I have some running around town to do...stuff that has to be done before leaving for 4 days, so I need time to try and do that, and won't be able to spend alot of time packing. Tomorrow, will just be putting together last minute stuff. it never fails, as hard as I try, there seems to ALWAYS be something that we go off and forget. It seems crazy that 2 people need SO much to be gone for such a short time. But...just as sure as I don't take something, we'll need it. I think I'm about down to the end of what I can do tonight...I'm waiting on one last load of clothes...jeans to dry, and can get them added to our bags. I've got stuff stacked all over my bed in piles...sorted out, ready to put into the bags, and soon as I can get it all in front of me, and see what all I need. lol This was my first chance to sit down since I got home.
Kenny and Gabriel are with Tom and Kristine, and Gwen, Amanda's mom and dad and sisiter. They went to the St. Louis Zoo today. I know that those 2 boys will plum flat wear out, those 3 adults!!! i sure wish I had the energy that they do. They are going to call my cell when they get back into town, and I will meet them to pick up the boys. We're really not sure what time they plan on being back. We're kinda guessing around 6...but it is really nothing more than a guess. I'm hoping that they call sometime before I will meet Lee to go to Landon's, and that will be a little after 7. Hopefully, we're not going to get 1/2 way to Ashland, then get the call, and have to turn around and go back. Unfortunately, I don't have anyway to get ahold of them, to call and check on the possible time. So...we're just gonna have to play that by ear and take it as it comes.
I think Lee was going to say something to Rob today about getting off a little early tomorrow, but I really don't have any idea what time he is going to ask to leave. I called him when I got off work, and we discussed it a bit, then got sidetracked onto a different subject, and we never did get back to what time we wanted to leave. I remember telling him that if we left around 3, that would put us into St. Louis during rush hour traffic...and that's about all the farther we got. So...I don't even know if he said anything to Rob or not, or if just tell him tomorrow. I'm sure we'll not get out of here by 3...maybe not even by 4, but...if we can be on the road by 5, I'll not feel too bad....that's at least better than after 7. If we can leave by 5, we should be getting into Lee's mom's around midnight....hopefully! I'm not sure if I'll have the chance to get to a puter or not. We're bring back Laura's old one , she's giving it to moriah, and she's got a new laptop. I don't know that she'll let me mess with it. lol She might. We're going to try and get to Indianapolis too...whichisn't far away, and see Lee's cousin cindy. She does have a puter, and I know she'll let me use hers. So...maybe I can get on at least once while I'm gone. I'm still going to have to set my groups to no mail, just incase....or I will be overun. My bulk mail will be anyway, but i don't want my groups bouncing. Moriah will be at landon's, and she knows my password, so if nothing else, I'll call her and have her go in and delete some of my emails for me, if need be.
Yesterday was Kirk's birthday. It's so hard to believe that he is 29. Like all my other kids, it seems like they should all still be little ones crawling on the floor, and learning to pull up to the chair, or couch. Whewwwwwww....
where does time go...and why does it go by so quickly?
It has been black, cloudy and rainy here most of the day..but warm and humid. The sky is still scattered with some large dark storm clouds, but it isn't raining anymore, and the sun is doing it best to break through the clouds, as the living room and kitchen will light up as it comes through the west window and door. I pluggin' for the sun!!!! We've had rain for 2 days.
Well, my dryer is gonna shut off before too much longer, and I need to try and get the rest of the clothes packed. I may have to leave in the middle of it and go pick up kenny and Gabriel. It will just depend what time, whether we come back here for awhile, or go right to pick up Lee.
We'll be back later tonight...not really sure what time, but I'll check in, you can bet on that, and see what you've all been doing through out your day. I hope it was a GREAT one!
Much love,
Lev
