All Kinds of Crazy

At this point, I am scared, nervous, excited, anxious, worried, sad, happy, and slightly nauseous. Everything is set to go. I have everything I need. I know God wants me there and can't wait to see what He's got rolled up his sleeve. I'm on the "meet and greet" list which apparently means that every time I get off a plane someone meets me to take me to my next flight... Awkward - but that goodness.
I take off at 6:50 from Toronto and arrive in London at around 6:30 AM or something London time. Then I wait for HOURS until my next flight that's around 11:15? London time. THEN once I land in Singapore to change flights I have only 1 measely little hour to somehow get to my next flight to Perth. So basically if there are any delays.. my life is ruined lol. Just kidding - but seriously.. that would not be a good day. Not to mention I will already be in a bad mood for not sleeping for like 30 hours.. anyhow. So then, if I do make it to Perth, I will arrive there at around 3:50 pm AUS time.. so 1:50 AM our time. (14 hour difference) I am going to be one tired girl by the time I finally arrive. I hope I'll be able to sleep .. I usually can't in airplanes.
So I started saying my goodbyes this week - harder than I had realized. Especially just realizing how long these 6 months are. I know they'll go by fast, but it'll be tough to be a lone for the first little while. Hope everyone had a good Christmas.. I'll be blogging whenever I get internet connection - idealy.
Keep praying that everything goes smoothly in the airport. No searches or anything - never a good time, or lost luggage - because that is also not so fun.

Can't wait to hear how your flights went. I am praying that all will go smoothly and on time, and that you will be able to get enough sleep to function well. I love you and miss you, baby girl!

Wow . . . it's getting dusty and cobwebby in here . . . you must be keeping very busy (or catching up on your sleep!) Staciestamps is my friend in Ohio with the 3 adorable kids (Joy looks like Mary Kate and Ashley) that I stayed with for a weekend, remember? There are so many people who are following your adventure and praying for you . . . I love you, Mom
