Feeling pretty anxious today - just 48 hours to go. I was snuggling with Jack the cat this morning and wanted to cry because he looked so sweet and content. I told him his world was about to be rocked - and realized that mine will be too. I know we'll love seeing everyone and being there, but there have been so many changes in plans and are so many unknowns on this trip compared to previous ones that I cut myself some slack for feeling so stressed out this time.
We did a "test pack" last night to be sure we could fit all the gifts and still be under our 50 lb weight limit each. Looks like we'll be fine so that helped with the nerves. Tonight I'll get the rest of my stuff packed and then tomorrow morning Jack moves to dear friend Elizabeth's house where he stayed in 2008. The difference is that Candy was with him then but has died, and her two cats Noah and Isaac have died too - and there is a new cat on the block who may not be so hospitable. Since his name is Malawi it has to go well - right?!
