Epic Shopping Adventure

This past Saturday I spent the day with my mom... shopping.  I didn't realize how many things I needed to get to be ready for this adventure.  Since I hadn't started packing, shopping was certainly the answer.  My mom and I spent the entire day running from store to store to make sure I have everything I need to be happy in S.A.

I will be rocking out in South Africa in just 10 short days... now I just need to pack everything I got this weekend... oh and enough clothes for a month!

I am starting to feel the stress that comes with leaving home... it is safe to say that I do not like: change (that I am not in control of), not having a clear plan, or not knowing what I will be eating.  The lack of information has certainly increased my anxiety/stress levels... I know everything will work out, I know I will have a blast, and I know I am about to have a once in a lifetime experience. 

I like lists.  I like making lists.  I like checking things off the lists once they are done.  I have been in heaven making "to do" lists to get read for this trip... I  haven't been super successful getting things done and checking things off of my lists.  

It's time to get busy!!  Wednesday is packing day.  Fingers crossed for me!
