This is awesome
It's so very important. I'm very lucky in that. [Edit: and thankful]
I imagine that when it's all over I'll feel a little lost and panicky.
Maybe I'm stepping over bounds here, but wouldn't the new "home" security (I'm not even sure I'm calling this by the right name) be a sort of something to lean on, to know that "this is OK", a fountain of strength to go from to the new possibilities?
Either way, I think you're very wise, to concentrate at things one step at a time. I have to tackle things this way, otherwise I'm completely lost, and all the details together seem overwhelming.
How long between the wedding and the surgery? And I forget - where are you going for your honeymoon?
Are you still here, Nilly? I had to catch up with the thread, and after each of your posts, I'd think you were surely gone, by now.
Cindy, I wasn't in front of the computer when you posted - I was TAing. I still didn't finish, but in the next hour, I have to.
Go, Nilly, go!!
Did you get any sleep at all last night?
Eeek -- I've also been getting your all-nighter (and now into an all-dayer for you) in compressed FF style, Nilly. Rest-ma to you when you can!
Jon Stewart was back on TV with a new episode of
The Daily Show
last night, so all is better in my little world....
Nilly! Guess what? In a couple of summers, I'm going to be in Israel! The school that just hired me out in LA is a private Jewish high school, and they send any of the their faculty who are interested over to Israel to expand their understanding of Jewish history and culture. It's a ways off, yet, but I'm excited!
Kristin! Go you! That's wonderful news.
Big crazy move, Kristin! Congratulations!
Congratulations, Kristin!
Eek, you just reminded me that I have about seventy things to do before I go to Israel that I haven't done yet.
Today, I am continuing my quest for a dress to wear to a friend's wedding. My plan was, if I couldn't find something that was modest enough on it's own, I'd find a dress that was long enough and with a high enough neckline, but sleeveless, and then wear a sweater or a jacket over it, but just about everything in the stores this season is way too low-cut.
