and it's fun knowing that it truly is a great city, not just to me! Check out this article about Vienna !

...I hope things will slow down. Today I got the feeling like the world was going to cave in soon. It feels a bit better now, but this next month is going to be crazy. I'm moving this weekend. Finishing school in 20 days. Getting married in 30!! These are all good things, but overwhelming when you put them all together. Here's a brief glimpse into what's been going on in my life... Buying: things for the apartment Considering: how the move this weekend will go and how long it will actually take Cooking: lucky if I have time for this! I did cook Thai pizza w/ my roommate on Monday though. Eating: Happy Noodle Googleing: hum, haven't done much of this lately! Learning: that I have so very much to learn about life Listening: to the German song, I ch bin bei dir (I am with you) - it helps me calm down and remember who is on my side and carrying me through it all! Loving: unexpected family time and the thought of having the whole family together in just a few short

Yesterday, I once again traveled over the big pond. Minus being worried about getting my suitcase off the conveyor belt due to almost every other suitcase still being on (I think the Europeans on the flight got stuck in customs - I've never seen such a full and clogged conveyor belt before in all my many travels), everything went pretty smoothly. The travelling started very early. I got picked up at 5 a.m. - my dear fiancé picked me up! It was wonderful!! I finally made it after three flights to Roanoke, VA. My brother-in-law picked me up and now I am in Martinsville with them and not able to sleep after 5:30 a.m. Lovely! Today, Laura and I will drive to Memphis for our Grandaddy's funeral. It will be fun having this time together, but it is a long trip (10 1/2 hours). I'm looking forward to our family time together and to celebrating and remembering Grandaddy's wonderful life. The funeral will be tomorrow and then on Wednesday, Laura, my parents, and I dri
