i'm procrastinating packing right now, and doing one last blog-check. i work late today, then work tomorrow until 5:30 when josh will pick me up from work and take me directly to the airport, where i will fly away. the song "jet plane" is already finding it's way into my head. so far, i've been completely excited about this trip but today, for the first time, i woke up with a wee bit of sadness in me. i am going to miss josh SO MUCH. okay, for all you married veterans, i know i'm only going to be gone for 4 days. but the thing is, we haven't spent a single night apart since we've been married. and the other thing is that we've had way too many tearful-airport-goodbyes already in our relationship. nearly all of our dating/engaged months were spent long distance. i guess i'm just feeling a bit of deja-vu with having to say goodbye to the man i love. i really thought that once we were married the goodbyes would be over...
okay, ENOUGH! i really cannot start getting tears in my eyes over this! i must think of this week as just a long series of hello's (no goodbyes). lots of hellos to my favourite canadian folk and then a few days later, hellos to my favourite american person. yes, i can do this.
i have a few more links to add, probably won't get to that for a few days, but watch for it.
so long

Happy travels Heidi!!! Lots of "hi's" are good. Let me know how good that White Spot burger tasted!!! xox Jennifer
awwe, I know what you mean about the tearful airport goodbyes. Course now you know it is only 4 days and not 4 months or "till I can afford to see you again". Small time apart to miss eachother can also be healthy... or the perfect opportunity to leave a really long honey-do list ;) Enjoy your whitespot!
Heidi......after 8 years of marriage, I can tell you that "good-byes" never get easier. When Jim leaves for fires, I get sad, even though I know he'll be back in a few days/weeks. One thing I have learned is to never look back, that's when the tears start!! I've also learned that it's harder on us than our men. We are just emotional creatures I guess!! Anyways, I'm praying that you'll have a safe trip, and enjoy your time there!!!
I am tending to the babe, and am excited that you are on canadian soil right now! Yay, I cannot wait to see you tommorow. (we will both have lovely bags under our eyes). Thankyou to Josh for sharing you w/ all of us!
