Am I Really Ready??

OK I am getting scared about up coming moves.
Since October of 2009 CJ and I have been waiting to finally start a real count down till his ship date.
He is leaving September first and I wont see him for two months.
So since November CJ has installed a gadget in his phone that counts down the days till he leaves. So it was always on 250 days or 200 then 100, but then CJ went in to the office yesterday and had to take his final Urine test and tomorrow he has to take his final Individual Fitness Test.
Which means he is in his last 45 days! Can you believe it he has six weeks till he leaves!
When we move we are only allowed one car to take,
so we talked and mine is the oldest and gets the worst gas mileage.
So we just did some word of mouth selling and found a family who needed a car for their sixteen year old. It felt so weird to see my car drive off.
Then today the boy who has my car pulled up to the church and all of a sudden I felt so sad that I didn't have my car any more.
Then this last weekend we took a trip to California to see my Best Friend and her husband who is also good friends with CJ.
This will probably be the last time we are all together for a couple years. We had a lot of fun!
This week we have been planning a Temple trip with my padres and a
BBQ after with my side of the family. We want everyone to see us probably for the last time for a while.
I just got an email from my MIL and she wants a final Temple trip for CJ's side of the family before he leaves.
This part of our lives is coming to and END!

So 42 days till CJ leaves and I am trying to make sure I will not loose it while he is gone. Can't wait for our new adventure!

If you get bored or lonely while he's away, you can always call me or maybe take a quick trip to Hawaii? Who couldn't use a trip to Hawaii, right? and all you have to do is get a plane ticket, which is only a fraction of what you'd pay for a Hawaiian vacation. And he's gone during the off season so tickets are much less than any other time of the year! Sounds like a good idea to me! (wink wink)Have your people call my people and we're good :-)
