Life has been going too fast this weeek!
The movers came Monday and took all our stuff to Cali.
Wednesday I took my NCLEX, or nursing board exam. I PASSED IT!!! That means the state of Illinois thinks I am competent enough to be a nurse.....whoa they need to maybe think twice?? haha
Thursday, or yesterday......James and Mike E packed everything into the blazer and got it weighed. Then James' big ugly truck got loaded onto a car-hauler on its way to San Diego.
This morning the guys left for California. They drove all day, and by 5pm they made camp in Tulsa, OK. That's approximately 666.4 miles from my parent's house in Lockport. Only another 1400 miles to go! The movers will get our stuff to our new apartment on the 18th. James and Mike will HOPEFULLY get there by Sunday night the 17th. Please keep them in your prayers!
Anyways, I am flying out tomorrow (Saturday) around 3. I'm headed down to Pensacola for a leadership class. The class is a week long, so it goes until the 22nd. That night I fly to California. I still have NO IDEA where this leadership class is! I have called so many people and offices...and no one knows anything about it! I'm really trying not to just scream out loud....or is it SOL? haha I think I may get a rental car for the weekend, just till I find out where I'm going on base and everything. I'm reaaaaalllly nervous because I always get lost! I really like PLANS. I hate "flying by the seat of my pants," which is what this leadership class is starting to be.
Can I just say this? AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
Ah, that felt good. :)
Anyways, aside from that little break in sanity...here's our new address:
8679 Lemon Avenue, apartment #11
La Mesa, CA 91941
I still want to send out some cute address change cards in the mail.... :)
More to come later...

Congratulations Gretchen on passing your exam! I'm so proud of you and everything you are handling at this time. I'll be praying for you in a special way in the days to come. Please don't forget to post so that we can all keep up with you!
Congratulations to you! Now you are an Official Nurse Cutie Pie. I will be praying for James and Mike -- that is a long trip. I'm with you on the PLANS thing -- nothing irks me more than being made to "fly by the seat of my skirt" :-)
Thanks for the address -- can't wait to hear all about your adventures in CA and even better yet, can't wait to hear when that moving truck is headed back this way in a few short years. Love ya!
Congrats and Good Luck!!! I'll keep you and James in my prayers.
