last day of freedom

Boy that's odd to write, because it is so true. For the next 3 years, the pressure will almost never be off. Yippee.
Last night I had pizza with the neighbors, Jeff and Debbie's treat. Then I got my banana split and made myself about sick eating all that ice cream. But it was worth it, well kind of. I probably could have bought two gallons of ice cream for what I paid for it. I'm tempted to go get a cone soon though.
Got my place cleaned up. Realized I can do a bag of trash a week, so my bags will last me over a month, thankfully. Found out that my tomatoes have tomato worms, so I might be pulling those out soon. They gross me out looking at them.
Also found out that my ID card is also my ATM card, how weird is that? Bit scary too. Too much information and power within one card.
Tomorrow is my first class. Statistics, oh fun. Why is statistics always a Monday class? As if Monday's are usually bad enough.
Tomorrow is also the deadline for the car shipping company to give me a shipment date. I have a feeling I'm going to have to work the phone tomorrow. My caller ID and call waiting is still not working. What is with this place?!
The Steelers play tonight, which means the town will shut down at 8. I will be watching however, so I can keep up with "current events." Until then I'll just be watching tv or a movie, possibly reading for fun and working on my puzzle. Basically doing a whole lot of nothing. And making something with hamburger for dinner.

Julie,
I love reading all about your wonderful adventure. The pictures of your place are great. Sounds like you have had full days. You must be exhausted and stressed out. Good that your neighbors are so friendly, but do be cautious. You're a smart girl, but a long way from home. We keep you in our prayers daily. Love you!
