A Last Goodbye

Well, it is that time. I've already moved all of our property to the new place. Now, it is just time to move us, and the vacation begins. We have been saying our last goodbyes to all the locals we know, and tying up all loose ends. Shanathan's Goodbye Party at the school will be a success. With the way he got welcomed back to school by everybody today, after being gone for surgery, I can tell. The cake has balloons on it, and "Goodbye" with his name. There was a lot of love in that schoolyard today. I was asked by a man who works there if I will join them for the party, but, I won't be able to. Too much to do on our last day here. That was sweet he asked, though. I have even been adding the final touches to this site, including updating things and editing/finalizing posts. However, I have run out of time, (I woke up too late today, at 7:59 a.m. (I didn't go to bed until after 1:00 a.m.), and we must be on the train by 2:15 p.m.). There is still work to be done here, especially since settings and fonts have been changed. I, as usual, have taken a lot of pics, something I always promised myself I would never do, given my parents used to take pictures so much, I thought the flashing would never end. Haha Just kidding. Anyway, I have now surpassed them in the picture taking department. It has been wonderful working on this blog and sharing the news with you all. As I said in a post below, I will be back in the Fall... hopefully. And, hopefully, by that time, I will have my own computer... and printer... and CanoScan, as well. LoL I walked into a computer center, and told a gentleman that I know a bit that I am leaving today. He said some nice things, along with a couple of jokes: There are two things about moving. 1) You never know how much stuff you have, until you move. 2)The difference between "junk" and "stuff" is, "junk" is stuff you throw away, "stuff" is junk you keep. Haha My father helped me move my stuff. At the old place, my friend and I loaded up the UHaul. Heading to the new place, my father saw what was in my UHaul, and the words, "Dios Mio" came charging out of his mouth. LoL My dad doesn't even speak Spanish! I told him on the phone later that night that he had said that. He said, "I said that?" And, he was thinking on getting another mover. At that time, he only had one. On the freeway, the mover told my dad, 'Look, if two girls could load the truck, most certainly I can unload it by myself!' (something like that). LoL Goodbye y'all. Time for my morning coffee. : ) -SDRoads

(It was hard to find a picture for this post, believe it or not. Haha I ended up with this. Type in "Summer" as a search, and you'll see what I mean. I had to try "the beauty of summer".)
