SORRY...IT IS A LONG ONE...
Okay everyone, I have decided to write (type) down how I have been feeling this week. Started off the week with a last minute trip down to SL so I could have an interview with a branch down there, felt like it was a wasted trip the minute I got back in the car....leading to frustration that they wouldn't just do a phone interview first then a face to face, saving me the 3 hour trip. Turns out my suspicions were right, received a call on Wednesday that I did not receive the job. On Monday night the ladies I bowled with on Wednesday nights took me to dinner at Aggie's. I was bummed about the interview but they cheered me up really fast, I love them all. I was also able to ride the motorcycle to dinner so it was awesome! Of course at the end of dinner I went to being sad cause I realized it was the last time I would see them before I moved.
Tuesday was pretty uneventful, I worked all day so not much time for anything to happen. Got to watch Biggest Loser so that is always a good day. :)
Wednesday was disappointing with the phone call I received. Plus trying to figure out which mortgage company we were going with was starting to really grind on me. I turned it over to Andy and then stressed about what he was doing about it. I can't remember much about Wednesday so it must not have been too exciting either. Went and walked by the Logan river and saw how full it was. Tyler fell down a little bank and got his arm in the water, scared us both more than anything.
Next...Thursday...once again I worked all day, but that evening I went to Zumba and then some ladies in my ward threw a "going away" ice cream trip. I sat there in the little ice cream shop and took in all the people who loved me. Making me go through a whole slew of emotion in about one hour. I am going to miss everyone up here in Logan. I stayed out until 12:00 talking to 2 of the ladies that came, I think we were all just glad to get a break. We were standing in the rain for about 30 minutes of it.
Friday brought some packing, not very much is done. Everyone keeps asking me why I don't have much packed, all I can tell them is I have had to open the boxes I do have packed at least 4 times to look for something I didn't think I would need. But I did pack up a few things on Friday. Then that night we went to a ward dinner and then to get some more ice cream. Staying out until 10:30 with one of the same ladies I was out with the night before. Her name is Ashley and we became instant friends, making it even more hard to leave.
Now we are onto today (Saturday), once again I filled my day with activities to help me avoid packing and making it all come to an end. Three of my high school friends came up and we did lunch, then one hung out for a few hours then another one of my friends came over with her boys and we decided to go get more ice cream! In case you don't know this about me....I LOVE ICE CREAM!!! I did go to three different places so it is completely different, right?
The whole week was filled with the stress about the mortgage, finally on Friday we made a decision and we are now hoping to close by the 26th so we can move in on the 28th...that's right folks that is next Saturday! Only 7 more days! I better get moving on the packing thing. I pack when I am okay with the move and then when I start getting sad about the whole thing I stop. I do have some ladies from the ward coming over on Wednesday morning to help, but I don't want to have too much left for them to do. Of course by Wednesday I will be okay with everything being packed up, cause I really won't need any of it but some clothes and toiletries. I have such wonderful friends up here that they have invited us over for dinners Wed-Fri of next week so I won't have to worry about that. I just hope that one day I can be as great as everyone has been up here. Everyone sure is making it that much harder to leave!

Jen, I'm sorry it is so hard to leave. I feel for you! Going somewhere new isn't a bad thing. Ice cream is a good cure-all. I hope at least one of your ice cream stops was Cold Stone! Ü Good luck with the move. Wish I could be there to help.
Great post and tribute to you Logan friends. Thye all love you so much but like you said it is only 1 hour 42 minutes and they and you can make trips to see each other. I am sure Tooele has and ice cream shop too. Love you
