for some reason, i kept thinking that today was my last day in reno, but really i have one more day. i'm leaving at 8am thursday morning, and at this point, i don't know when i will be home again.
i went to watch james play softball tonight, and on the way to the game we talked about how i'm feeling and that's when the first rush of sadness hit me. but i brushed it off and talked about how i'm scared to start school instead.
but tonight, i was sitting by myself after everyone had gone to bed and sadness rushed over me. i'm growing up. holy smokes. i'm really growning up.
there's much to be excited about. like making my condo feel like a home. and trying cupcakes from kara's cupcakery. and visiting the ocean on a whim. and having visitors. and meeting new people.
i've been doing a good job of focusing on those things and blocking out the other feelings.
until now.

Enjoy your last day! And otherwise all I can suggest is to surround yourself by things you love in your new place. Have fun decorating and otherwise stock the freezer with ice cream and the pantry with favorite treats. Set up a scrapbook space. Get some favorite magazines. And just have fun getting everything set up for school to start. And have fun buying new school supplies. :)
Oooh, and with free time, you can get started on that list of must see things in the bay area. :)
Hang in there - this is a new and exciting chapter in your life. Enjoy the experience and of course, keep in touch.
