if life gives you lemons take a shot of tequilla

Life is kind of funny sometimes. The past two days have been the worse days in a long time. Yesterday was particularly bad. However, Kailey and I worked everything out. I changed my email stuff and everything is hopefully going to be smooth for awhile.

Then today when I got to work I had an email from Sallie Mae (my loan people) and it said my faxed had been received. Just for fun I wanted to check and see if on the web it said my application was incomplete. Instead of the predicted message it said in a big giant font, “Congratulations your loan has been approved dispersal date is for...". I was so excited I called Kailey and told her.


The only bad thing is the dispersal date is for the 9th. I needed it now. I am going to go to the bank tomorrow and see if I can't get a credit card or something for a just in case thing. I would probably pay for a lot of the gas with the card that way I'd have money in the bank and when I get my loan I can pay the card off and cut it up.

In less than two weeks I will be in Raleigh starting a new chapter with Kailey. I am very excited. I am so happy she is coming with me. The more and more I think about it, I can't imagine life without her. The first few weeks there are going to be rough really rough but we will manage. But we will have each other and that is all I need, well that and a place to rest my head.

My parents are going to help Kailey pack up the rest of our stuff either Saturday or Sunday. I would like it very much if Kailey went to her parents house the rest of the week. To be honest it is one thing I wish I could do as well. So I would like her to but I don't know what she has planned. I just know she will get home sick and her mom and dad will get daughter sick, it would be good for them to spend that week together, plus it may help Kailey keep her sanity for that week (wink wink at you Kailey).

As for me my mentor is busy Monday and Tuesday so I have to go set up the instruments by myself those days. It will not be so bad. Better than today, I am not really even sure why I came in to work today to be honest. I have nothing to do at the site. It is my last day here, so I guess I could take my stuff home.

Love and kisses,
Rick
