Good Luck and drive safely! I'll be waiting to hear from you so I can post updates! Hope this is a wonderful new start for you!

Wow Gina, what a surprise! I hope you have a safe trip. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers and will be at least a bit worried until I hear you have arrived.

You will probably be having a white Christmas this year!

Oh Gina, that is wonderful!!! I know how excited I was when I packed my kits, car and drove off into the sunset heading back to my home state of Connecticut.

Hey, my daughter and I always do a NYC weekend in the spring. Perhaps you can meet up with us????

Have a wonderful, SAFE trip! Please keep in touch so we don't worry!!

Gina, you have had such a hard time and I'm so excited to hear you're leaving the hard times behind and moving on. I wish you great fortune and I pray that your new life is nothing but the best. You deserve something good for a change sweetie. Please have a safe trip and I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I can't wait to hear that you've made it to the East and all is well!

Good luck, and drive safely! Where are you going to school? I went to Rensselaer, in Troy. The winters and HILLS!!!

but updating you first..

thanks guys! yes, I will drive carefully - hopefully the others will! just had my car fixed. . .grr.

yay, I can't believe I'm really leaving... been so wanting to do this for two years. and this will be my first white christmas as well.

I drove around a little & slowly to let cats settle down.. amazingly most of cats are purring and making happy feets!

this is the first time all of (13) cats riding together, I'm impressed.

crayola is comfortable, liking cats piling up on him! he already dozed off.

my rat, buttons and goldfish, speckles & betta, spirit too!

my car is so small now. . . well worth it, 5-7 days of crowdy car to have them all with me forever!

smokey - heh. school, I got accepted at RIT & NYU - can't wait to start whichever there too.

thank you furrykidsmother! I'll update myself if I'm able to, if not, I need you so people won't worry. allright, I better start driving - miss you all.

bye everyone for now & take care! ((hugs))

We have plenty of white stuff out here, you should be quite happy. Probably have even more in NY then we do in NH!

Glad to hear that all is well with your Ark and that they are settling in nicely. WOW! I would be afraid to attempt it with my 4, but am glad yours are adjusting. I bet Crayola makes a terrific pillow!

Sure, I'll be sure to keep everyone updated if you can't, just stay in touch and let me know your progress.

Good luck and best wishes as you head towards your future! I, along with everyone here will be keeping good thoughts of you!

Take care of yourself and your Ark! (((Hugs))) to you too!
