Getting Closer!

It's hard to believe that in less than two weeks I'll be in AZ!! I'm pretty much done with packing except for little last minute items and things that I'll be taking with me in the car. Now, it's the fun part...cleaning...NOT!! Oh well, if I start now and take it gradually it won't be so bad, right?? Since I haven't been working evenings it's been nice to get things done and be able to hang out with my friends before I go. I have something going on everyday until I leave! Yay! Thankfully one of my friends is coming along with me for the ride so I won't have to say a final goodbye until she leaves. Then the sadness will come...it will be bittersweet for sure.


So far everything is coming along pretty smoothly. Oh, a funny thing happened to me this morning (well maybe it's not so funny). It drizzled last night and everything iced over...therefore my car was covered in ice. I was trying to be patient and let it defrost and then trying to scrape off what I could but the drivers side windows just wouldn't budge. I thought that maybe if I tried to roll the windows down that it would loosen it a little and be a big help. Well, I don't know where my brain was and I was starting to fiddle with the locks instead of the windows. Once I was working with the proper buttons I still couldn't get the windows to budge. So, slamming the door I realized too late that I didn't check to see what the status of the door locks were. In my mind I was like "No, I couldn't have just done that", but sure enough....locked! I had to walk all the way to the front of the complex to the office on the icy pavement and then had to wait around for a locksmith. I figured I couldn't leave Oklahoma without having some sort of a crazy story. BTW...it was freezing cold outside and I already threw away my heavy coat. I was being optimistic!! :)
