The clock is ticking

I am getting even worse at this keeping up with my blog. Hopefully when I get out to California I will have many more things to share. Which by the way I am leaving in only 6 days! So little time left and things are finally starting to get a little crazy. I still have a little over $700 left to raise - and that's just the project fee, that doesn't cover airfare, food and other transportation. If you wanted to look at it in terms of the big picture it would be about $1700. Since there is only 6 days for this money to come in, I am totally having to trust it in God's hands right now. He will take care of me and I am definitely having to believe that right now. So I would so greatly appreciate that whoever reads this to keep me in your prayers as well. I do trust that he will provide. He has already provided more than I could have imagined and I am so blessed for that.
In spite of that little setback, I am having some trouble with packing. I am flying American Airlines to San Jose, and normally you are allowed to check up to two 50 lb bags without being charged. However, the airlines just decided about two weeks ago I think that passengers would only be allowed to check one 50 lb bag and the second 50 lb bag would cost $50 extra. We all know that there is no way that I cant pack for ten weeks into one 50lb bag suitcase. There is just now way. When I would come home for the weekends I would usually bring one 50 lb bag and a 30 lb bag. Thankfully they decided a few days ago that they were lowering the $50 fee to like $15 or $25. Anyways, packing will be difficult because as I think I previously mentioned I am the biggest over-packer ever!

But in other news of my life.. I had a birthday on Sunday! To celebrate I went with family to OTB for lunch and then we had a little family dinner at PF Changes to celebrate my sisters birthday which was 2 days before mine. It was a decent birthday I guess. Nice and relaxed which I don't get too often.
Oh my goodness! 6 DAYS! It's so starting to sink in. As excited as I am about spending 10 weeks living on the beach in Cali and witnessing God do amazing things that he is always so great at, I am going to miss spending the summer at home with everyone I love so much.
