Deutschland, da komme ich!

I am going to Germany! That statement makes me both excited and nervous. I recently had an opportunity to come up for me and Rex to go to Germany. My (ex) son-in-law is in the military and he will be over there for 4-5 months in a rented house. He graciously offered us an invite to visit and after much consideration, we felt like it was too big of an opportunity to pass up. Booking the flight was stressful enough. Deciding when and how long to go was enough for me to give up hope in going. I have the type of job that I work OT before I take vacation and work OT after I return to make up for the time I missed. Rex has the type of job that his work is done while he is gone, but he is always last on the totem pole when it comes to taking off. I decided that I was not going to let either one of our jobs keep us from going. I bit the bullet and booked the flight - we will be gone 10 days. I have a good friend that is from Germany and she says this isn't near enough time. I am sure it won't be, but it was the best I could do. I can't believe I am actually going to go to Germany, France, Italy, and Austria. These are the four countries I am most excited about! Let the countdown begin: 122 days to go!!!!

The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

Psalms 121:8
