One Month to Go!!!

It's really weird to think that in 1 month I will be on my Scotland! I've been planning and awaiting this for so long now, it doesn't seem like it's real! My nerves are telling me another story though... As the LONG parade of good-byes, dinners, last suppers, get togethers, and parties sees me off; it's finally starting to sink in and hit me!!! I'm getting nervous, if you can believe that. I know I've moved overseas twice by myself before, but something seems very different this time. And I know that this is an amazing opportunity and a huge stepping stone for my career, but I'm still nervous. Last Wednesday I took my final lap around my home ice rink right after I nailed my scratch spin at center ice to pass my last level since I won't be on the ice again until I'm in Scotland. I think taking that lap was when it became a reality for me. If it wasn't then, then it was when I announced my leaving my company, Canterbury Park, after nearly 7 years in front of my entire department shaking the entire time. Also because I'm giving notice at my day job in a week!!! Again something I've known that I had to do since January. That's enough for now, back to the Olympics!!!
