Last Days

Today was my last day of work. Chuck and I turned in our GPS, last bit of information, and we did some of our best work of the year today. Thankfully, when I was ready to go out with a flurry he encouraged us both to go out with a bang. Then Zabeth and I rode the bus back to El Paso, and went to dinner with Nani and my Dad. After a few failed attempts at finding an establishment we settled on an oldie but goodie, the Frisco Burger Inn. Everyone had Hamburger baskets and fries. Suzie dropped by to say hello, and Granny just called to wish us well, say she loved us, and to cry just a hair. Thats kind of a microcosm for my own feelings. Alot of hope, joy, and excitement, but as always a little bit of sadness about the things that are so familiar. The list of things to do for tomorrow pretty much begins and ends at buy a ticket home. It may seem that is a necessary step that should have already been taken, but we are kind of milling around just waiting for a reason to come back. Now the only reason to come back is that we cant stay there forever.
