Yesterday was a super busy day, the highlights were Jollene and Elea's graduation and the "lowlight" was me making an idiot out of myself playing violin at church. Mom and Dad threw a big party it was a Jollene's graduation, Elea's departure, Mom and Dad's survival party. It was a lot of fun, lots of relatives came down and I was happy to see that a lot of Elea's friends came too (she is always worried that people don't really like her, this was proof that I was right and she worries too much). Also Al and Lisa came and Jon too. Jon has grown even taller and covered himself with more tattoos. (Why is it that his tattoos seem stupid to me but mine I am totally okay with?)
I guess Jenny didn't know about Spain. I figured that I had mentioned it or Mom had, but apparently not.
Everyone keeps asking if I'm excited about Spain and the instant answer is "of course" followed by a mental addition of "and petrified." My stupid nerves always catch up with me. It sounds like something out of someone else's life. It's hard to believe that it is me explaining to people, "Well I will take a month-long class to become certified to teach English as a foreign language, while I do that I will be looking for a job in the Barcelona area." Wow that's me! That's what I will be doing in a couple weeks!
Dad mentioned to Elea that she only had 9 days left (man did that get her depressed) it made me sad and then I remembered that if she has 9 days then I only have 17 left! And that was yesterday so really I only have 16 days. Wow it feels like just a couple days ago I was saying," only 2 months 3 weeks 4 days 3 hours and 19 minutes." haha Well now the numbers stand at 16 days 2 hours. I know it's going to fly by too because this weekend we will leave Saturday for the race, get back to K-zoo Sunday, stay with Elea in K-zoo Sunday and Monday and then take her to the airport on Tuesday (where I will then proceed to ball my eyes out). Then one week of packing and checking details, toss in Father's day, and ta-da it will be time to leave.
