Ok girls! The nerves are finally setting in! Yesterday after work I did laundry (3 loads), went to my parents to have dinner, went to walmart to buy more toner for our printer, got home at around 11:30 and put away laundry, printed more pictures for evidence, made sure I packed EVERYTHING, got papers and stuff together. :pullinghair: <---this is how I feel right now!!!

I am soooo nervous and scared that I'll forget something and remember when I get to CDJ. I'm excited yet nervous. Last night I was so stressed I even had a small,tiny, itsy bitsy, fight with hubby about something so stupid!! Anyhow, I didn't end up going to bed until 1:30 am! And I had to get up again at 6 am to come to work. I am feeling super duper sleepy and stressed. Well, I guess in a couple of weeks when we are back home, it will all seem petty and like a nightmare. Now the only thing to do today is..take our daughter (she's a chihuahua) Bonnie to my mom's, take our 3 hamsters to my little BIL's house, and take our luggage to hubby in Mexico so I wont have to haul it around tomorrow. My momma is going to drive me to the Bridge and I'll just walk across!! ayyy! The waterworks are coming. I don't know why I am so emotional. Last night when I went over to my parents, my dad kissed me on my cheek and asked for Esteban, I almost lost it. Whenever my dad does anything sentimental, I try so hard not to cry. I have always felt that he is my SUPERMAN, like anything he does or says I'll be alright. I felt really bad for my dad when all this nightmare began, He was super attached to Esteban. Him and my dad were fishing buddies, and they were in a band together and could pretty much relate to anything. My dad loves him like a son. Anyhow, when Esteban was denied entry to the US last year, my dad cried soooooo much. He said he felt like a son had died. :( anyhow, now he says that he is excited to hear the good news next week that Esteban will be coming home. I just pray to my Lord that this will happen.

Oh and I want to thank everyone on here for being sooooooo special and awesome and caring. You know, yesterday I was talking to my mom and was telling her that NO ONE knows what my husband and I are going through except for YOU ALL. I'm ashamed that not even my brother and sister, care enough. They haven't even offered any help or anything! But I know that they don't even begin to imagine what my life right now is like. But atleast I have you guys! Thanks again!

Ok, I just realized I am venting and ranting. So before I go any further, I'll stop here.

Chicas, and dudes!! Please please please!! Pray for me and wish me well!! I need all the good vibes, love, and happy thoughts!! I'll still be on tomorrow in the morning. But I'm off in the afternoon to Monterrey, hopefully I'll meet Amy & Carlos..and Thursday we're off to CDJ!! <--so surreal!

It's been a Very long year, full of tears, laughs, fears but nonetheless they're OUR memories! I'll never forget.

I LOVE YOU I2US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :yay2:Juarez here we COME!!!

Auntlily, everybody is saying prayers and have the fingers crossed for you!!

I wanted to say that if you are fearing leaving anything behind you might need, this is what I'd suggest to clear your head with all those lists probably turning around in it.

I'd take a walk. Take it to get out of the environment you're in right now, the environment where all the planning and packing is going on. Walk about a half mile or so down the road, away from everything, and find a place to sit and relax for a few minutes. You'll be taken away in distance and won't be looking at the same things that have been in front of you. It might give you a chance to relax and there might be something that possibly comes to mind that you might've left out of your list or belongings you're taking.

It might sound silly but I've done it before and it worked.
