Well, the count down is well and truly on. D day is two weeks on Sunday so you would think that I would be quite organised by now. Sadly not.
The paper work is done. At least I think its done - my passport was sent away several weeks ago with my visa application and hasn't reappeared yet. I also don't have any flight tickets (I think they get emailed a week before departure), but apart from a few vaccination things to sort out I don't think there is much that I can do to speed these things up.
However we have an entire flat to pack up, and I need to sell my car which are two massive jobs that haven't even been started yet. Instead we are looking at wedding venues, and caterers, and photographers.... maybe I'm in denial.
I have been given a kindle (clearly essential kit) and bought a lot of toiletries, which I tell myself is getting organised but I still have this nagging feeling that buying more stuff is not really what I should be doing at the moment. I should be learning amharic and stocking up the local charity shops with the mountains of clothes that I won't take. Still, none of this will stop me from getting on the plane if its not done. I might feel guilty about leaving it all to Calum to sort out while I swan off on the adventure of a lifetime, but then again.....;-) !
