T-minus 20 days

In 20 days I leave the comforts of home for six months and go trekking and serving around the globe.  Almost literally, as it happens.

Tomorrow I hop on the train and make my way to my cousinbridesmaid's place to hang out for a few days before celebrating the Lilbro's graduation.  I've been there at least once a year for 20 years now, and they are my family.  I am kind of stressing out right now because I will not be home for almost a week.  My dog--who will walk her?  My room--who will clean it?  My free time and personal space--how will I survive?  I could literally spend the rest of my life burrowed in my home if I could choose...

People have been asking me if I'm excited and/or ready to go.  Tonight, it's a resounding NO!



Jesus help me.
