    Eeek! I Leave Tomorrow!

    Well, I never imagined I'd be able to do everything on my to-do list today (morning swim, hair appointment, flea treating the house [again], laundering the sheets, laundering all the clothes, going to the store to buy ingredients to mix my rat's food and buy the boy some candy, packing what I wasn't able to yesterday which happened to be mostly everything, going out and buying last minute necessities, in addition to getting everything done at home that needed to get done), but I did it!

    I'm SO nervous but it's mostly excitement and anticipation more than anything. I leave at 5:30am for the airport, won't be departing until 10:45am, and then I arrive in Dublin at 8:15am Tuesday and hopefully in his arms shortly thereafter! Here's to hoping I have smooth travels! Despite it being bittersweet (my mother's having a hard time with my leaving, and my rat's health is not faring well), there are no words for how thrilled I am to be running into my SO's arms again and getting to spend almost a whole two months with him. It's the longest time we'll have spent together in person and I honestly cannot wait for it. I am so over the excitement of the countdown and ready to be there already!

    So, LFAD, I may pop on every now and again, but I probably won't be around much for the next couple months. I shall miss all of you while I'm gone! Maybe I'll hop on at some point to let everyone know how it's going. I really am terrifically excited for this. It feels like meeting and seeing him for the first time all over again. After everything that happened after our first visit? I couldn't possibly tell you how much this means, but there are days I honestly don't think I could have gotten through if it weren't for a lot of members here on LFAD. Thank you all so much for the support over the past several months. It's really nice to feel like a giddy school girl again, and I don't think I'd have gotten here as strongly and confidently as I did without your support of me and my SO.

    I love you, LFAD.

                        Have a great trip! I'm sure it will be a wonderful two months for the both of you. We'll miss you around here, but wouldn't have it any other way. I hope it's a perfect trip.

                        On another note, I really hope your rat gets to feeling better. The only bad thing about having rats is that they just don't live very long, and they are susceptible to so many health problems. I am not looking forward to the day when my girls have trouble. They are such perfect little pets....
