Let the Count Down Begin!!

Hola Amigos!

This time next month I will be on the road to WY.  I finally secured housing so if you want to write me via snail mail or send care packages :) then let me know and I will send it to you.  I already love my new home; it has amazing views of the city as it sits on top of a hill and it is only 3 miles from my job downtown.

Just a few more things I must take care of before I leave beautiful Bama, but I trust that everything will fall in place.

Chao,

Getting My Ducks in a Row!

Greetings,

Now that I have a tentative time-line, I have been trying to get my "ducks in a row" with filing all the necessary paperwork.  Housing is looking up so far, but nothing set in stone just yet.  I think am already starting to feel slightly overwhelmed (mainly because I am so excited and I want all the logistics to be done, umm, tomorrow even though I have until August 15th).

I think by filling in all documents, it is making me realize that I will be leaving this 100 degree weather and trading it in for a much cooler climate in a very short time.  I know this will be an amazing year with amazing results.  You just watch and see ;-)

Hasta pronto,

Preparation 101

Good Evening,

Welcome to my blog! I have 48 days until I report to the West and I have so much to do--finding a place to live, planning the actual trip, and let's not forget finalizing all the AmeriCorps paper work.  I'm tired already thinking about it, but I know the things that I need to do will have an amazing end result.


My Tentative Timeline:

Month of July: Look for housing, Hotel for half-way point, Create a Budget, Finish Paperwork, Create Blog

Week of August 1: Finalize housing

August 7th: Farewell Lunch @ Rosie's Mexican Cantina 1pm-3pm

Week of August 8th: Start packing!

Week of August 15th: Attend Brother's Graduation in TX

Last Girls Night Out: August 20th

August 22nd: Last Sunday @ church

Week of August 22nd: Finish Packing

August 26-28th: Embark on the 23hrs & 14min journey to Casper


I am sure I am probably forgetting a few things ;-) At any rate, I will be back to add and cross things off my list.

Buenas noches,
