Packing!
I hate it! It’s true. I just think of all the things I will be leaving behind, all the things I might miss and all the things I just absolutely NEED. Well, let me say, we have 4 bags each weighing 50 pounds that we can bring with us, plus two carry ons. I am not kidding when I say that we will likely have to pay for a 5th bag. It is not the clothes, oh no, that part was easy, just wait for pics to see how simply (crap-ily) I dress while I am there. What is taking up so much room is the STUFF. The supplies, the crayons, the pencils, the blocks, the puzzles (ok, and the 10 books I am bringing with me, for personal pleasure), the cleaning wipes (for ALL parts), the toilet paper, the linens, the pillow (look there is only so much I can live without). Man, I hope I can get it all into these two bags.
