Last update before I turn in for my last night of sleep as a full-time Chicago resident. All the stuff that's moving is packed up, save for my bedding and bathroom stuff that I'll need in the morning. I didn't quite get my bags packed with my final inventory for the trip itself, but I've got it trimmed down to everything I *want* to take. Will probably have to go through one more time to finalize the list, but I'll probably just dump everything into a couple bags tomorrow morning and sort it out once I get back to Michigan. Close enough for now.
I really wish I would've made it back to Michigan by tonight as I'd hoped and would have all day tomorrow to just hang out with my nephews, but so it goes. I'll still see them some tomorrow and Saturday.
Gonna be an early start tomorrow, but I should be able to get the van all loaded up and make it back to Port Huron in time for kickoff. Go Pirates! (There's a Neptune High joke in there somewhere, but I'm just too tired to find it right now.)
Overall, the mood is improved. Some encouraging words from a friend earlier tonight helped a bit, as did finishing up as much as I have. It's currently tired, but content. The next two days will be a bit of a rollercoaster, but I'm looking so forward to my first few steps outside the airport once I'm on the ground.
ps - I really wish I could get that map widget in the sidebar to work. Is anyone seeing an actual map there? Let me know if you are. All I'm seeing is a white box with the zoom and view mode buttons at the top. I put in a question about it on the blogabond site, but so far, no replies.

Thought I'd get this going to test before you leave. I only see the white box. Congrats on the packing, see you tomorrow. Have a safe trip home!
Love you, Dad
I see the map, so you must've figured it out.
Have a great weekend! Great trip too!
