Isn't that somethin' ??

I feel spectacular

I finally got the GO AHEAD AND DO IT!! seal of approval from my mom

Her simply saying to me, you should go, has made all the worries I had about leaving, vanish. I've been so worried about leaving her when she's not well. I've been thinking about it all summer long. Mike and I talked about it at work all the time. I was scared to bring it up..... and then it just slipped. She was excited about it. This is good, this is very good. :)
