The package and 3 days to go

Wednesday - a snowed in day, but i went down to our Make-a-Wish sponsor's apartment to pick-up out package. The MIT went with me, and i even took some pictures. The package included a Yatzee game, a large Star Wars tin with pins and a stretchy monkey in it, and the itinerary for the trip. It was so exciting to actually hold it in my hands. The itinerary also included a cheque for expenses while we were away, as we will need to take taxis for some of the planned adventures we are going to have.

Thursday - This day was spent trying to cash the cheque for the expenses. It took my Sister and i 4 hours, and lots of phone calls to get it done. There was a problem with who signed it, and the bank not having that person on the signature card. It finally got done and i was finally able to breath.

Thursday night - E and i needed a night out. We needed to get away from kids, and actually interact with grown-ups. So off we went to the Social/Mixer. It was nice. We met a new person. It was very interesting. It didn't talk and didn't "have a face" as it was wearing a latex mask, gloves, and clothes that covered its skin. It answered questions with a clip board. The night was otherwise calm. Well, i did cause a bit of trouble. i called someone by their real name even though they don't want to be called it. i got confrontational when a "Dom" called me a "subbie", and he apologized. It was fun.

Today - this morning i have a doctor's appointment. Soon. After that, time to relax. Later it will be therapy time again. i am not dreading it. i am not excited about it. i am kind of indifferent today. i have to much other stuff to think about. Laundry, packing, dishes, cleaning. Just alot of other stuff on my brain to fill that feeling spot right now. Plus, there are only 3 more sleeps before we get on a plane to New York. i am getting really excited. So is the MIT.

Anyways, off to start the day and get more ready than i am.
