Tiffany said to me the other day that she feels like she is a freshman in college going away for the first time, all over again. I can totally relate to that. I have been trying to get everything in order so that I can have a smooth transition to life on the road. I have been emailing the other LCs what I am packing, asking them what they are packing (I'm so glad I did this otherwise I would have forgotten essential things like boxes of contacts, socks, and a jacket, things I didnt really think about in the middle of July). I'm glad I have the other consultants to bounce ideas off of, or I would not have had a preference dress either. Its hard picking outfits too, I have my favorites but now everything has to fit into one suitcase!
I have spent the past few weeks trying to fit in some fun visits. I went to Philly to visit my friend Ej who recently moved there, she has a fabulous new apartment right in Center City, I am so jealous of her. Dana and I went down for the 4th of July to see the fireworks, it was a ton of fun.
I also managed to go to the Jersey shore to Long Beach Island to visit Bobby, Kate and Alicia my roommates from last year, I also managed to see my Little, Nikki, and a quick trip to CT to see my old roomie Lindsay. By some miracle my Irish skin also managed to get a tan line... huge surprise!
I keep going over and over the packing list that I made for myself saying, what am I forgetting? I got a new camera as an early birthday present which has been amazing and I cant wait to take a million pictures of my adventure. It seems like so long ago when I got that phone call offering me this job, and now only a few days until I am on my way to Walton house! : )

Hi Em - it is me Eileen, thank you for the shower pics. I am glad you are off and running (lol). I, for one, am not running and enjoying my summer of aloneness. When you teach it is imperative to have your alone time to regroup. I hope you are well and anticipate sharing your wonderful travel year! Be safe,have fun, and god protect. Love Eileen
