Getting stuff done!

Well, this has been one of the busiest weeks in Elizabeth Matthews history. I have a to-do list two pages long. It didn't start that long, but every time I crossed something off I remembered two things I needed to add. However, with this being my second to last night in my ugly house, I am happy to say I have two little things left. I've argued with the Army over stupid things, found homes for the dogs, found a buyer for my car, organized and packed most of my house, and stayed busy with all of this ALL WEEK . It's been so long since I've actually done anything substantial. Without a job, I've felt useless for the past few months, but getting all this stuff done has been overwhelming and very rewarding. Few things in my life can compare to the feeling of accomplishment and excitement I'm experiencing right now. By far, the thing I'm most excited about is seeing Jared after months without him.

For anyone who would maybe want to send us things, our address is

For anyone interested, I'm flying to my sister, Tracy's on Friday morning. Then, on November 9th I'll fly from Norfolk, VA to Seattle. I get to hang out at the USO in Seattle for 11 HOURS before my flight from there to Tokyo. Tokyo to somewhere, somewhere to KADENA AIR BASE! I'll get in at 19:25 on November 11th. I am not looking forward to the flight from Seattle to Tokyo. Longest plane ride I've ever been on. And, obviously, the majority of the flight will be over nothing but ocean. I"ll probably do another post from Seattle, further expressing my anxiety about that flight. But I'll wrap this up for now. See you soon!!

XOXO
