My first post! I am off to Calgary this afternoon to spend a night with my brother. Tomorrow is a day with family. Sunday is the big day, I fly out at 7:20pm. Reality won't set in until I am on the plane. I feel better knowing where I go once I am off the plane at the Heathrow airport.
This has been a whirlwind summer. It is hard to continually say good-bye to friends and family. The hardest was leaving my dog at my dad's, watching him look out the front window as I drove away. It was heartbreaking. The sad thing is he doesn't know that I am going to be back.
I have appreciated all of the support and encouragement from everyone. I know this will be a life changing experience and I look forward to sharing it on this blog.
Let the journey begin!
