packing craze.
So today has consisted of me running all over trying to do last minute shopping in a city that has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!! Times like this remind me of why I am so glad that I no longer live in the AV.
As far as packing goes I am actually making some progress. Right now I am staring at our piano room and basically it has like 5 piles of things... stuff from SD that I need to box and store for the next 2 years, stuff I will need the next 2 days but don't want to take with me to Uganda, clothes headed for Uganda, a huge box of commingled other stuff that I will take to Uganda (such as batteries, shampoo, swiss army knife, headlamp, towels...), and a pile of stuff that I have bought in the last couple of days that hasn't quite made it to the previous box.
Now, for those of you who know me best, don't get too excited because although it seems like I am very organized with my little piles, I have a confession to make... there is one addition pile that I failed to mention because it's not actually a pile. Spread throughout the house are all the things that I had already organized but then needed to use and so had to remove from their lovely pile. These things will probably be sitting on my floor (or in the bathroom, or in my mom's car, or on the dining room table...) until they are re-piled at a later time (such as friday night at midnight).
So, as you can see... my life has turned into piling and unpiling, packing and unpacking, and writing "to do" lists then crossing things off just to add 10 more things a second later... I can't wait for Saturday to come!!!!

SHEEEEIIIITTT MALTEZE iz in da hood! I love you, my African Princess!
May your mosquito netting protect you each night...and the love of your family and friends keep you strong :) A thousand kisses and well wishes, Sarah! love, mom
I saw a lot of "bag ladies" during my 8 week stay at Los Feliz area but your photo of your going away load of back packs, tote bags, etc., tops them all. Sarah. So, if Uganda is not to your liking, I can find you a nice spot to park in Griffith Park--Gramps
Sarah, Is that you under all those bags? If you can carry all that stuff you'll be strong enough for your work in Uganda. Oh, the places you'll go! the experiences you'll have! And the people you'll meet! We send you on your way with all our love and prayers. Grams
Hey Sarah B !
I am soooo excited for you. Send pictures (obviously). I'll be looking for your blog posts on a regular basis.
Guess what? A previous babysitter of ours back when Beccas was a baby- Dianna Kingston - is in the group going to Uganda with you! They lived directly behind us in Omaha when we lived on Nicholas street. I am sure you've met her by now....If not, look for her...
You are going to Love It......my African Princess...(stolen from shelley above!:)
Stay safe!
Love, Aunt Sean
p.s. Dianna's blogspot address is whaddaugandado.blogspot
Hi Sarah - just read you recent posted note and so glad you are feeling better and sincerely trust the kidney infection does not return. Yes, can imagine that nice warm shower felt really great, as it does each morning for myself! Linda is visiting in two weeks for her 40th HS Class reunion, so will be good to see her. We visited Rudy in Alpine over Labor Day and then next week end, we are visiting our daughter and family in Wimberley for my B-day (day before your Grandmother Anne).
Take care of yourself and know you will do well with your new assigment. Prayers are with you.
Lots of Love Nancy/Royce
