It's almost 1 in the morning, and we're still finishing up. Our flight isn't until 5 pm tomorrow, so we'll have plenty of time to finish up packing and cleaning before we have to get to the airport.
This weekend was spent saying goodbyes to families. There were some tears and a lot of hugs.
Kaylea spent Saturday working at Skyline Trapeze and came back sunburned, making it her fourth consecutive weekend with pink shoulders. After that it was a rush to get to Cleburne to watch her dad and brother team rope. Her dad won a buckle.
Sunday morning we had a birthday breakfast at a cafe since we'll be gone for Kaylea's birthday. The food was meh, but it was fun. Kaylea got flowers, a balloon, and an awesome cupcake.
After breakfast, it was another rush to get Kaylea to work at Skyline. I went to visit, and her boss let me have a few swings! Then Kaylea went to work at Summit while I went to my parents. Kaylea came by after she got off work, and we had dinner. After some hugs, we had to drop her car off at her aunt's in Anna. Finally made it home around 11:30 to finish off another super crazy weekend.
Saying goodbye at work was a bit strange. Since I'm coming back, it feels like I'm going on summer vacation. I haven't had one of those since I was 17! The third of my neurons I usually have dedicated to thinking about work suddenly had nothing to do. I found myself intermittently clapping and yelling "woo!" for several hours after leaving the office.
After I got off work, we went to the gym, and said goodbye to all our climbing friends. A few of them will be moving away while we're traveling, so some of the goodbyes were a little strange. "Oh wait! This is the last time I'll see you like... for a long time!... It's been real."
After climbing, we had some sushi with our friend who will be driving us to the airport, and keeping an eye on our apartment. Who doesn't like dinner with friends? It's going to be hard to go without Mr. Sushi and Thai Star for the next few months.
For now, we desperately need to get some rest. We've got some long flights ahead of us.
Till next time!
