T-minus 5 days!!!

I finally arrived in Platte City, Missouri after a 21 hour drive.  Yes, that’s right.  What should have taken 15 hours took 21!!!  But I arrived right after 3 AM and Jason’s mom let me in and I went straight to bed and slept for 12 hours. 

Now we are down to crunch time. 

We have a list about a mile long of things to get done between now and Sunday - and Jason also wants to fit in a day at “Oceans of Fun” to work on our tans.  As you can see, we have our priorities straight. 

We are turning off our cell phones Saturday - so after that, it’s only email.  Our cell phones don’t work at Jason’s parents house and they only have dial up - so if you are trying to contact us, sorry for the delay! 

I wanted to give a “Holler!” to my friends in Charlotte.  They are all amazing and gave me a great send off.  Ashley was kind enough to let me stay with she and Jeff for 10 nights, I stayed with Tracie for 2 nights, Amy got me a car cell phone charger so I could chat with everyone as I drove across the country, Jenn arranged a lunch for 15 of my closest work friends and then showed up around 3 PM with 2 coolers of beer and tons of snacks!  Ashley, Jessi and I managed to go see ‘Sex and the City’  and then Amy joined us at Zapata’s for dinner.  Aden got me $25 for my Zune to keep me updated on the latest and greatest tunes, Amy got me some calling cards for Latin America, and Ashley got me a fabulous journal to organize my thoughts in (much unlike this rambling post).  Anyway, THANK YOU!  I am lucky to have such amazing friends in Charlotte and Fort Mill (love the GNO crew!  We’ll always have myspace!) - and I look forward to seeing you all again. 

Now it’s time for us to get back to work!!!
