Almost time... Am I really blogging!

     I decided to blog the next stage of my life because Sarah and Kara thought it would be fun, so here I go.  I am not a writer so this will probably be really bad, but don't read it if you don't like it!! :)  I am really random, and thoughts fly randomly, but I'll try to keep it organized!  So the reason for the blog: well, I have been near my family for the past 30 years and then decided to marry a military man.  Marrying Geoff was the best decision ever by the way, except for one tiny problem, well, maybe not a problem but, you know...I have to MOVE!!  I am leaving the only state I have ever known!!!  Shoot, not only the only state, but the only area!!  I have lived in Orange Grove and Corpus for the majority of my life only moving to College Station for four year for college WHOOP!  So, this is the last week I have here in the big OG...a place I grew up and a place my family lives.  Not only am I leaving my family, but I am leaving my friends and my career behind to move to sunny San Diego (No not Texas, you wouldn't believe how many people asked me that!).  I know what you are all thinking, what could be better than moving to SAN DIEGO!  I get that a lot!  And it has taken me awhile, but I am getting excited.  Not sure if the excitement is about moving or finally getting back in the arms of my husband.  Seems like forever we have been apart even though it has only been a month.
     I have been living with my best friend Kara and her parents the past month.  Pretty hard being apart from Geoff, but I couldn't have done it without them.  They have been like family to me and I am so grateful to have people like that in my life that I can count on.  Hardest thing was saying bye.  I came to Flour Bluff expecting to go to work and go home, but then befriended Kara and life changed.  It was like I had a sister.  How much fun is it to get to work with your sister everyday!! Way fun; makes work so much better!  Through all the laughter, jokes, smiles, and random conversations.  Then not only do we work together; I live with her a month!!  If I can't be with my husband, next best thing my best friend.  Well enough about that, but THANKS so much Kara and mom and dad for everything! :)  Love y'all!!
     So come Friday, I am packing up my car for the last time and driving to San Diego with the parentals.  For those of you that know my parents wish me luck!!  Geoff has a bet going that we will be fighting as soon as we are all in the same car!  We are dropping their car in San Antonio, so that's two hours of no fighting!! As long as we can keep Janice reading a book we should be good!  They will be exploring San Diego with me for a week; should be entertaining!  Ready for this adventure!
     I guess that's all I have for today.  I am truly getting excited for this I just pray that God has a plan for me.  I pray everyday that he stays with me and guides me throughout this process.  I know he is here with me and getting things ready for me in Cali.  Knowing all that, it is still hard for me to not worry.  I know, I know not supposed to worry just put it all in God's hands!!  I got this; I know I can do this with all the help from God, Geoff, family, and friends.  It will truly be a great experience.  Getting excited to live my life with Geoff and since it will just be us two, we will really get to know each other!!  A great person made me realize that is pretty awesome just to be the two of us and get to learn each other and become closer with each other.
     That's all for now!  Next up Road Trip with the Clampetts!!
