Thanks everyone. Well, she's off.

She is so sweet though, she could tell I was upset and when I got home she had already called and left a message teasing me and saying she was already on the top of a mountain.

Then she called me again to make sure I got the message (and to make sure Spike was okay

). I just can't wait until Tuesday when it's over. I always get a little anxious when she goes on trips but this one is just extra hard because I just keep picturing icy mountain roads.
