Waiting for the final contract to be sent to me, and then I need to give notice here (2 weeks) and then I need a few days to tidy things up at home before I fly down there - so I figure it might not happen til Memorial Day weekend now. Then, the plan is, that I'll be there for a couple of weeks working and locating a place to stay, then come home and pick up the pussycats and my car and drive back down there.

I'm getting a little antsy about this, although I know it's a go, but I can't say anything here at work yet and I'm getting more and more involved in this current test release, so it's a bit tough right now. But at least I had a talk with my mother and, although her initial reaction was what I thought it would be ("why are you doing this, Ruthie? Are you sure you should do this, Ruthie?'), she seems pretty happy for me now.

I'll update you more as it goes. Thanks for asking, Lynn.
