Hi all!  It’s 1 AM on Sunday morning, and I’m just getting ready for bed.  We don’t have any appointments this weekend so we plan on taking tomorrow to finalize a lot of the moving stuff.  We’ve already mailed ourselves 15 or more boxes, and there will be plenty more coming your way, Dad!  My mom’s right—you don’t realize how much you’ve accumulated until it’s time to move!

Today was pretty relaxing though.  We watched some Lifetime and then Cold Case stories in the AM (I love the Cold Case Stories…not the tv series, but the tv show that follows real-life cases.  I can’t explain why the cop shows and the legel dramas always fascinate me, but they do!

David, my cousin, came over in the early afternoon, and we drove him around town just a little to get a sense for the city.  He just moved to this area today, so we will be able to see him today and tomorrow which will be nice ’cause we haven’t seen him for a while.  We took him to “Buca di Beppo’s” for dinner, and you know how I feel about that place!  I can’t wait to get a group together sometime and eat in the kitchen!  Who’s up for it?!

Nothing medical to report except my joints are pretty annoying right now, especially my ankles and my knees.  I don’t know if it’s all from tapering off the steroids or if it’s a mix of things, but they’re sore…it kind of feels like what I would imagine arthritis to feel.  Hopefully it will go away soon!!

Anyway, my eyelids are feeling heavier each time I type, so I guess it’s bedtime for me!!!  This is a boring old post, huh?!  Nothing magical or exciting to report, no photos, just me telling you a little bit about my days and how they’ve gone.  I think my mind is still trying to get used to the fact that we will be leaving here Thursday…we can’t wait!!!!!

OK, I’m off to bed…seriously, my eyes are almost shut….I wish I didn’t have to get all the way up and put the laptop back in the other room….don’t you hate having to get up when you’re so ready to give in to the sleep?  OH well, I better stop whining and just do it, huh?!!

You’re probably asleep already from this blog, so I guess it doesn’t matter. 

I hope everyone is having a good weekend, and a great start to the New Year.

Lotsa love,

Julie
