1. Save money
2. Lose 15 lbs so I can fit into my swimsuit
3. Go to Anchorage to see my sister, the Future Gov, her baby, and Alaska
4. Deal with my mental health
5. Set up the office to deal with more of my absence
6. Pack my bags because we're going to Australia

What had a 5% chance of actually happening just became a 97% chance of actually happening. My grandmother has alzheimer's and so my sister, my nieces, Adam, B and I are all going to go over to Australia to be together as a family for the first time in 14 years. Grandma will be covering airfare. Guaranteed ports of call include Canberra and Junee (near Wagga Wagga), Sydney, Woolongong and hopefully south coast NSW. Maybe Melbourne and Victoria wine country, and maybe (only because I've always wanted to check it out) Adelaide.

AWESOME!

Why Junee? I ask because DH is from Wagga! Considering that thing about your cousin etc when I read that I could hear the twilight zone music in my head ;D

Well, my parents and my aunt and uncle live in farmland in between Junee and Wagga but technically closer to Junee. I actually spent second semester of 11th grade at Wagga Wagga Technical High School.... let's see that was June-Dec 1991.

I WANT TO MEET ELLIOTT!! And you. :) Some how we'll have to hang!

Heh. You & my husband went to the same school at the same time I think. He would have been in the same grade maybe? You are early thirties, yes?

Troy Gardiner is his name, although after all these years I doubt either of you would remember?

Small world!

I think I remember a Troy..... tall, large (not fat)... oh my, do you have a picture? All of sudden a picture from my going away party is coming to mind. I was SO uptight then! It's entirely possible!

*wracking brain*

Wow! How dedicated that people dyed their hair for you! Great photos, by the way.

Hmmm...... I don't think so. Ask him if he remembers the girl from Alaska. Still. Whoa.

They didn't do it for us - it was just a very red hair year lol.

I will ask. He might have been the year below. Yeah, it's still really weird. The world is actually made up of only like 1000 people, I'm sure ;).
