all my clothes minus coats . hanging shirts. shoes and 4 days with of regular clothes. I always felt like I had more clothes than I guess I actually do. with all the clothes out of my room its feeling more real

I can't believe this is my final three days at my parents house before I move on Friday. Pretty much everything is packed, today I packed like all the stuff on the walls and stuff that I was keeping out til the end like some pictures and my funeral prayer cards and my color changing chameleons and such. The only things left out now are Fuzzy Wuzzy my bear and the graduation card my nonna was writing to me when she had her stroke. Those I will just pick up and care with me. I need those out and with me until the end. I really can't imagine what life is like outside of this house. It seems unreal . I know its ridiculous becuase I am almost 28 but I can't imagine what my life will be like not here how it's always been.

Also, my 10 year high school reunion this weekend and my birthday in a week from Wednesday. So much stuff going on. Its weird, I really thought I would be more excited about my 10 year reunion. Like I am glad I"m going but I wouldn't say i'm super excited. I always thought I would be way more excited. maybe it is because I have the whole moving thing on my mind . I also think it is kinda b/c of facebook. I basically know what anyone I wanted to know about has been doing and even many people I didn't really care about. I feel like the reunion would be to see what people are up to and what they are like 10 years later but I already know that about a lot of them. I'm sure it will still be fun. I'm sure it will still be me , jill,mk , jesse and maureen sitting at our own table , living in our own world as always. That itself would still be fun to me!

this ripped piece of dish towel was my favorite toy as a child

these were my favorite jeans. they were the best fit ever. morrisey boot cut circa 2000. they didn't come all worn and holy I earned all those rips. but alas it is tim e to say goodbye. ill miss you

So every Monday I work two jobs and get home at 9, so does my mom. Full day Mondays for both of us has been going on for a while and when we get home after work me and her always eat and watch tv together, (usually castle during the tv season and whatever is on in the summer). My dad watches tv with us too and we all catch up on how our day was and just things in general. Even though I live at home that is really one of the few times during the week we are all together at the same time. It may sound dorkyish but I really love that time with my parents just relaxing and eating and watching tv after a long Monday. It just hit me last night that there is only 1 left before I move out , and then it hit me that I am really moving out. Its weird until that moment last night it almost felt more like I was going on vacation as compared to moving out. Even though I have packed mostly everything I own, it still didn't seem real and then all of a sudden it did. I am super thrilled moving out with (e:libertad) and to have my own place but it just struck me about how much I am going to miss about living here. Its been a pretty great 27 years I think, and I am definitely going to miss it!
