My To Do List

It's getting close. I leave in one week and I am starting to get nervous. It is the usual travel anxiety that I feel once a planned trip gets to be about a week away. I know it's close because Pat mentioned it this morning. He tends to ignore things that he doesn't like until the dying end.

So much to do....so little time.

1. Go bra shopping. This is a must. I can't travel with floppy boobs.

2. Work on my taxes. I want to get it out in the mail to my accountant before I leave.

3. Cook food for Pat. This is something that I do to make life easier for him while I am gone.

4. Go to the podiatrist. I have an appt on the monday before I leave.

5. Go through my closet and see what I have.

6. Wash the things I find in my closet.

7. Take Rigby to the groomer. He's getting long again.

8. Color my hair.

9. Get my eyebrows waxed.

That's my starter list. Now If I can just get at least one or two of these things done every day I'll be ready to go a week from today.

Hang on Fabbies. I a comin.....

My time with the kid

What a glorious few days they were. From the moment Kerry hit town life was fun again. She started talking as soon as she got home and didn't stop until she pulled out of the driveway with her dad this morning. Well, I guess that's not completely true. She stopped while she was sleeping:)

We shopped and shopped and shopped some more. We watched Sex and The City reruns and the movie too. We read Vogue together, had lunch together and laughed our asses off at all the cosmetic surgery we saw at the Town Center Mall in Boca Raton.

The kid, my heart and soul
She brings out the best in me. She is my heart and soul. She is my happiness and my future. She is my joy and my very best friend in the world. I watch in awe of her as he travels all over in the pursuit of becoming a doctor and helping the world.

Today she went to Washington DC for a conference. In the summer she will be going to Athens, Ga for another medical convention and then it's off to Gambia. Yep, Gambia as in Africa. She is raising money for mosquito nets to bring to the people there. They can't afford them and apparently the mosquitoes are a source of many different nasty diseases. She also hopes to learn some things to help her in her career.

So....here I am, alone and feeling lonely. I go through this every time Kerry comes home for any period of time. It usually takes a few days to get back to myself. At least I go on vacation in 2 weeks. I'm feeling like I need one.
