This is the time I love and the time I hate! Excitement builds! But now comes the dreaded...Deciding on what gets packed. For the last couple of weeks I've been adding thing to what I call the "staging" area....clothes, accessories, gadgets, electronics, whatever I think I many need for the trip. This "staging" area tends to take over my living room. (You don't even want to know this mess!)
Once again I realize I have way too much stuff...so then I think about what I "may" not need...which is usually half of the pile! But then the "what-ifs" start...what if it's cold, what if it's raining, what if we have unexpected hot weather? (That happened during a trip to Ireland!). The pile builds. Ugg!
But, on a happier note... I have actually downsized on electronics...I will only take one camera..and an extra lens...and my computer is my iPad...(though I am pondering about taking my notebook...but just pondering).
This morning "Big Barney" our purple suitcase has been brought down and items have been placed inside...just need some more items and we can zip up!
I'll wait until the day before to close up the garment case...til then the clothes will be hanging around a bit longer!
I think its time for coffee!!
