It's amazing how quickly the time can fly, particularly when you are begging for more of it everyday. As excited as I am getting, there is still SO much to get done within the next week before I can leave.
Next time need to take a minute and think things through before I open my mouth to speak to God. I prayed that He would help me to get my priorities strait, and that I would continue to make more time to be with my family before I leave. Well, Large Marge (my car) died last week. God works in some rather ironic ways, but hey if that's what it takes! Needless to say, I have been stuck at home the past few days. I have gotten a decent amount accomplished though which is a whole separate praise!
I received word from AVANT today that I need to get them a deposit, as well as permission for a background check, and a medical exam. They apparently were unaware that I am leaving next week. They were under the impression that I was leaving later in August. So, that will make for yet some more interesting chores this week.
There is going to be a benefit dinner this Friday (July 30th, 2010) to help with the final costs. I have also gotten in touch with the girl that I will be staying with, Laura. Being able to communicate with her about packing etc, has definitely began to make things feel more real! It's slowly setting in. Only one more week!!
