With only 13 days left before I jet set off into the unknown reality is kicking in that I still have ALOT to do. I've been shopping, buying clothes, travel accessories all the fun little do dads that will make life out of a backpack easier all while hoping said items will fit into said backpack AND be within the weight restrictions!! At this moment I'm kind of picturing myself being one of those people that is wearing as many different layers as I can pack on and still fit in the airline seat just so I can bring along everything I want to without my checked baggage being labeled as HEAVY. Because then on top of having to pay more money for your bag to fly you become that girl who is un willing to let go of her material possessions...and in turn you get that bright orange label with black letters. Not cool.
So do the rest of you go through this same challenge? I know I'm supposed to embrace this time, this gift of travel and to jump in full hearted and live the experience yada yada but why is it so hard to bring what feels like not nearly enough stuff. I don't want to be that dirty smelly traveller with 2 shirts, 2 pants some socks and undies and nothing else. Hmmm Apparently the lessons have already begun because I have realized how much I like to plan, organize and have stuff! OY!
K I'll stop ranting....for now.
13 days....Yep I'm excited and counting down. 13 days til I leave, 9 more days of work, family visits, thanksgiving dinners (gobble gobble) then I'm outta here :) I hate saying goodbyes as I turn into a blubbering idiot but as the songs goes " I still got a lotta leavin left to do" so guess I might as well practice.
On that note I'm up way past my bedtime as usual so this is where I say goodbye....
Goodnight, sweet dreams and Que Sera Sera...whatever will be will be.
