And packing has always been a pain for my ADHD brain. I can't seem to pack light, never think I am done and it's usually days into the trip before I'm comfortable with the idea that I really didn't forget something important. Today will be tedious. Tomorrow (flying) will be rough. Tomorrow night when I get to see my family again for the first time in 1.5 years will be wonderful. I do miss them.

We'll miss you. Have lots of fun. Take lots of Pictures.
Enjoy the time with your dad, you guys have earned a break..
Pack some Benadryl or Tylenol PM for the plane.
It'll help you sleep..
See you when you get back.
* Hugs*

A lot of health food stores and co-ops sell spelt products such as breads and cookies. Spelt tastes slightly sweeter than wheat and is a little more chewy. The muffins I made were a little more chewy than regular muffins, but they tasted really good. I haven't eaten wheat for over a month now and I don't feel bloated any longer. I also cut out corn, beef, pork and processed foods.

Oooohhh ... Benedryl or Tylenal PM ... good idea.
I have a few overlap days in Wisconsin before and after the trip, so I will probably post and scan a little from my phone. I have $5 a month unlimited usage internet on the phone in the United States. Once we go overseas, though, that's a different matter.
Thank you for the kind wishes.
I *heart* your being here at GNet!

Tenet, buddy! What kind of trouble can I get into riding camels?
Don't answer that! Thank you for the thought, though.
Ah, I think my Dad and I will be typical tourists ... see the sights, take the pictures, eat lots of local food, you know. But the kinds of night life I would usually indulge in ... well, that's out of the question with my very straight-laced Father along.
Which means that I will have a lot of pent-up ... er ... 'energy' ... when I get back. So worry about me getting into trouble then! LMAO!!!
Speaking of which, when I was married, I nicknamed my wifes privates "trouble". So I could sweetly smile in public and say "So, honey, does this mean I'm gonna be in trouble when we get home?"

Gluten allergy? My exboyfriend had that. Try arrowroot, too. Or just go to your local healthfood store and tell them you have a gluten allergy- they'll know what direction to point you in. There are these yummy gluten-free cookies, and you'll have lots of fun, even without wheat.

Today, we were making fun of each other at school, and Joey told me "shut up, vampire!!!" 
I don't know you, but I thought that was awesome

I just started my first day back at Uni, for 2006, which is also my final year of studying. Well, that's if I don't fail any subjects.
Suprisingly I'm actually looking forward to attending my first class, in a few hours. I haven't been in my study mode for the last few months, as I have been on a long summer break.
And God, my Uni is turning into a even more modern looking building, that it's fucking distusting.
In the meantime, I'm occupying myself in one of the computer labs, as my first class starts in about an hour.

I got up at 8 and went to work, scurrying to find someone to work for me tomorrow to no avail. I had cramps so that made everything horrible, but the people weren't as bad as yesterday. That's a plus.
Finished my friends' valentines (though I get nothing in return from them but company, but thats fine with me) and even made a few extra for anyone who wants one. I am also making fudge for everyone like I do every year...mostly for myself because it just started out of nowhere some year.
Now i'm sitting here, typing this and wearing amy new scarf and my star and moon footie PJs that haven't been washed for a week...or two. About time to get on that.

I found out today my mother has inflammed arteries which places her at high risk for a heart attack... I spent too long searching for college answers.. and I got a sizable terribly painful steam burn on my arm (I hate cleaning flat grills) cooking tomorrow is going to suck unless I can find a way to kill the surface pain.. OH and I have to be up in 5 hours but I'm so worried about my mom I can't sleep.

Wild Spider, that cake seems like it's going to be creatively pretty in colours.
Any pictures?

I'm sorry. I hope everything turns out well for you, Sanctus. I know it may sound trite, but your mom is very lucky to have a daughter like you.
Put Aloe Vera on that burn...
