goodbye, pooh...
i said bye to pooh yesterday morning. i guess it was more like "see ya in a few weeks" since i'm going up to see her over labor day weekend (and melissa and fam!!), but it was still hard. i helped her pack all weekend and stayed the night with her monday night. we've always slept together before a big life change--the night before my wedding, the night before she moves from poky, you get the drift. it was fun to stay up late and have every possible minute with her before she moves 10 hrs. away. i know i'll see her often, but not often enough to go to dinner spur of the moment, run to walmart so she can get out of the house and we can bargain-hunt, or just watch some useless tv show together. i know it'll be good for her, and i'm praying continually for God's favor to be on her and for the Holy Spirit to be more real than ever in her life. i talked to her today and they moved into their apartment and were getting ready to go buy a cheap desk somewhere--the overestimating of the amount of stuff that could fit in the minivan has left her desk upstairs in the kitchen in poky. so far, the only thing she's asked me to bring when i go is her jack johnson nalgene bottle, not too bad.


p.s. melissa, i tried to call you last night to chat and to let you know pooh's in town, and couldn't get through on your home phone. would you mind e-mailing me your # and then i could also give it to pooh. thanks!:)
