Change of Plans!

Update on my trip back home:

Becca has scheduled her brain surgery for Monday November 3rd, so please pray for her and send positive thoughts! We are all praying for a successful surgery and a speedy recovery. This has been a tough couple of months for Becca and she is really looking forward to putting this past her and moving on. So please keep her in your thoughts!

I was able to get approval from my work to change my flight back home to November 1st so that I can be home for the surgery. Which means, I will be home in 9 days! Yes...I am counting down! We are in single digits now! WooHoo!!! I know it sounds so bad that I am excited about this, under these circumstances...but I really am anxious to come home.

I finally received the rest of my stuff from home...UPS sucks! It was such a pain trying to send my stuff over here. But it is here now and all unpacked! I also got my Internet hooked up this week, so everything is finally falling into place. It only took 5 weeks! I can't image having to do this with out the help of the relocation company. They have been so helpful throughout this process, but even with their help it has been a pain. I met a girl from Santa Cruz that is here for 6 months on a temp work permit, and she said that it took her almost 2 months to get everything settled. Not sure what is up with the UK, or if that is how it would be relocating to any country. But anyways, it feels good to have everything sorted.

I have a fun weekend planned. Tomorrow I am meeting up with the girl that I met from Santa Cruz for dinner, then on Saturday I think that I am going to take a trip to Southampton (if it isn't raining too bad), I want to check out the Titanic Memorial. There are a couple other tours that look interesting there too, so I thought I would go exploring! Then on Sunday it is NFL time! The Chargers and Saints are in London playing football, (the tickets were 100 pounds, about $200, so I couldn't justify buying a ticket) so instead I am going with a couple friends to an American Pub for American BBQ and American Football!!!! I can't wait! I found this Pub and I am so excited because they play American sports all the time. They post their schedule on-line so you can see what games they are playing. I am so excited...I will be able to see NFL and NBA games! Hopefully the food is good. I think this might be a common spot for Michael and I when he comes out to visit!

More to come with pics of my weekend later....


Love you all so much!

9 Days...and counting!!!
