I've been packing all night.  Very exciting.  This is a hard time of year to pack for.  At least if it was August, I would know what to pack.

I get to go on a field trip tomorrow!  I am going with the special ed kids from my mom's school - so sweet, I love them so much.  We are going to eat lunch at Neighbor's Cafe, then walking to the Amtrak station and riding the train down to Union Station (I've never ridden on the train before!!!).  We will then walk over to Crown Center and eat dessert at Fritz's, and then ride the train back in the afternoon.  How fun is that!!!

I am so excited!!  I won a pair of Birkenstock sandals off of Ebay.  This is the first thing I have bought on Ebay.  I am now officially  . . . something.  Whatever people are who wear Birkenstocks.  Unfortunately, they will probably come while I am gone.  Yuck.  I will miss them until I get back, and I haven't even seen them yet.
