- The to-do list is growing smaller.
- Bit by bit, my life is getting packed up and stacked in the garage.
- It's getting easy to toss things into the trash or put them into the give-away pile.
- I fooled myself into thinking I could leave dry-eyed. Not going to happen.
- The storage unit has been reserved--sort of. (What do you mean, my online reservation only guarantees the price, not that you'll actually have a unit for me??)
- BBQ and a game of "Apples to Apples" with neighbors was a welcome respite from the to-do list.
- Why did I decide that the garden bench should be repainted before being stored?
- I'm glad to have an online friend who knows about carpet cleaning--now I know the right questions to ask.
- We had a 5 day weekend due to furlough days, and I haven't ridden once because the @#$% wind continues to blow. Grrr...
- I've learned that yes, there are cyclists in Abu Dhabi, women as well, and yes, spandex in public is ok. I'm going to wait to see for myself before I decide to either have my bike shipped or buy one there.
- Katie graduates from PSU in two weeks and I have no clue what to do for a gift for her. (Hmmm...funny how putting that thought to print caused some ideas to flit through the brain.)
- I wonder if anyone on Freecycle will want my old TV? (Yes, it's a big screen...but no, it's not flat.) I hate to have to haul it to the dump.
- Out of all of my "stuff" that is going into storage, the only item I would truly miss if something catastrophic happened is my grandpa's old Victrola. (But I'd still have my memories of him winding it up and playing "Mean Mama Blues.")
- Due to budget cuts, I'm not being replaced. Next year my classroom will be a storage unit for ESL materials. I feel for my coworkers who will have to absorb my duties into their already full schedules and I worry about my newcomers who will be tossed into regular classes before they're ready.
- It looks like I'm going to have to get snarky with the bookkeeper at the chiropractor's office about the refund I've been owed since January. A phone call and a note have had no effect.
- The oven is clean.
- I'm scared, I'm nervous, and I'm still a little incredulous that I'm actually doing this--but the smile on my face tells me that it's a good decision.
- It's probably a good thing that I forgot that Arlene also had an extra long weekend--I wouldn't have gotten quite so much accomplished.
- Four more school days left in this year...

I can't wait to read about cycling Abu Dhabi. And as for the storage unit, I'm reminded of the Seinfeld episode where they don't have a rental car for Jerry. He tells them they know how to "take" a reservation, but not how to "hold a reservation. Good luck, and keep us updated.

I read your post the day you put it up, but I had to spend a little time musing about its effect on me. The short version is this: I wish I were currently riding the crest of a wave of energy and adventure as you are. I'm not, as simple as that. I will again some day, I am sure. And it pleases me that you have that going on. Get away without tears? Oh, please!

I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is required to get setup? I'm assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty
penny? I'm not very web smart so I'm not 100% certain. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers

But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using WordPress
on a variety of websites for about a year and am concerned
about switching to another platform. I have heard excellent

Any help would be really appreciated!

intelligently about. I am very happy that I stumbled across this in my hunt for something relating to this.
