Day of

Ok, we are packed. We did the lay out, what do you have, what's too much, why do you have five pairs of pants thing this morning. I thought I might need jeans, one pair of khakis, yoga pants for relaxing, a pair of sturdy hiking pants and a pair of capris. Perfect! So the yoga pants had to go. I lost the rock paper scissors and had to carry the laptop in my carryon. So that meant a few magazines had to go. No way I am getting rid of my travel journal or the two books. Or the cards. Or the neck pillow. Or the folder of crossword puzzles or the toiletry bag.

I like that we travel light for the most part but sometimes you just can't decide what you HAVE TO HAVE. I would like to bring a vest. Dont' know why I just think it will come in handy. I'd like to bring my yoga pants because they would be soooo comfortable after a day outside hiking. I'd like slippers. maybe one more fleece top just for a different color. I also am not bringing deodorant so there. I may have to buy some when we arrive.

I told Larry I think every store will have some form of "Ewe" in the advertising. Like, "we do it all for Ewe!" or "Ewe do it! or Toys R Ewe! Or maybe something like " We are rolling prices way BBaaaaah-ck" (like a bah for a sheep). Ok, maybe not. I will let you know.

Sarah has decided that we should travel with a Lord of the Rings theme. I am going to be Gimley, the fighting dwarf that gets hungry, crabby and tired. Larry is Sam Wise who ends up carrying Frodo's sorry ass all over kingdom come to accomplish his mission. That sounds just about perfect.

Leaving for the airport soon but have to make two stops. One to order the decorative tile for the upstairs shower so it's here when we get back. And one at my work to sign for the Health Benefits packet that is coming out and has to be personally signed for by October 5th. Good thing both places are on the way.

Bye for now.Hope I can sign back in to this blog later.
