2 days to blast off!

Saturday morning.  I leave Monday.  I remember that I have questioned why I gave myself 3 days in Auckland before heading south to visit Noreen.  Now I remember why I did that---exhaustion!  I gave myself several slow days there to rest up & to slowly get used to my new adventure. Now I know it was a wise choice.  I am glad the weather here is rainy & in the 50's.  It is actually a bit warmer in Auckland today!  Plus--I will not have to water the school gardens this weekend as I had promised.  I just need to get the hoses in place.  Finish at school today with the help of my son, then errands, clean house & cook chicken soup with the last few things in my refrigerator.  My friend Pat will dine with me & help me check over all my packing.  My fingers are tingling again just thinking of getting to the airport on Monday!

Oooooo! 5 more days!!!!!!

This week is zipping past too quickly!  And will I get everything done?


5 days to take off.  My fingers tingle if I talk about that or write about it.


One week from today I will be in Auckland New Zealand (you lose
a day going that far west).  I look forward to meeting the sisters of the Mercy Spirituality Centre and exploring the city and islands!


A surprise: a reporter for the online newspaper called Shoreline Patch came to interview me yesterday about the garden project.  When she heard about my trip she suggested blogging for the newspaper.  I will let you know if that turns out to be the final location for this blog.  Still looking for one, or a solution
to my photo upload problems from my iPad to this blog.  I will keep you posted.


I hope you all are as excited about WHATEVER you are going to do this summer as I am!
