I am not a patient waiter. Just in case you have not noticed that from my blog. So, I “needed” to be doing something with all the days of waiting. Last night I looked at his bed, where I had been storing everything for our trip and decided I was going to make my first attempt at packing everything.My plan was one suitcase for everyone’s clothes and one for all the gifts and donations and personal items we need to bring. Ha! I was not even full in the suitcase and it weighed 68 lbs. OUCH! Took some out and still over the 50lbs limit, then took more and still over by 2 lbs.
I do think we’re going to end up needed 3 suitcase going over. One is much smaller so we can put it inside the others to bring it home and not have to pay the additional fees. He has our 2 large with over there, since we’ve hosted him twice, so we are borrowing large ones for this trip.
I decide last night we “really” need to go this month as my friend, who I am borrowing one of the large suitcases from, is going back the end of June and I really need to use her suitcase. So that’s my “good reason” for “knowing” it’s going to be soon.
And if it is soon, we will get maybe 7-8 days notice probably so I need to be ready.
