Preparation

It is less than 2 weeks until I leave for my big trip to England and there are lots of preparations underway. I am still waiting until all of my paperwork - work permits, visa, etc. are finalized. I am trying also to figure out how to fit all of my favorite clothes (and shoes!) into what now seems like an itsy bitsy bag. Although I initially didn't plan on bringing much with me, now it seems like there are more and more things that get tossed into the 'packing pile'. My parents are coming in 2 days to help clean up the house and sadly, take my beloved Maxx away with them. He is my cute black lab that I have had for 4 years, but will not be coming with me to England. So, lots to do and to plan for in the next week and a half. It is getting pretty exciting thinking of what is to come!
