One week from today I will be boarding a plane for my trip to Belarus (see previous post here: http://retirementnowwhatdoido.com/2012/11/21/big-decision-mission-trip/).
I’m excited, nervous, ready….well, not totally ready, yet. I’m working on that. PACKING! I’ve been thinking about what and how to pack ever since I made the commitment to go back in November. I’ve been actually working on packing since the kids and grandkids left on Jan. 5th from all the Christmas celebrations (you know…things like buying travel size supplies, buying a few new clothes, gathering needed items, planning what to wear, organizing everything, and the list goes on).
We have our final meeting this Sunday after church. We will get any unanswered questions answered and finalize travel plans. We can weigh our suitcases at the meeting because our leader will bring his luggage scale. Yea!! OH, WAIT! YIKES!!! That means I have to be packed by then! I think I can, I think I can…be packed by Sunday. That way I can relax next week until we depart. That sounds pretty good to me.
So….I better get off of here and get busy packing!
