Eight Days and Stressing

Eight more days till takeoff. Visas are applied for. Hopefully that was the LAST of the paperwork until we arrive in Liberia. I hate paperwork. I had to send off our original passports and that makes me way nervous. I am making a little headway with the packing. I figure that by the time I get everything in and the suitcases zipped, I will have rearranged it all no less than 68 times. It is amazing to look at the stuff with tags attached being new and crisp and to realize that in just over a week it will all be dirty and broken in. I will lug it all back and probably complain about having to do so much laundry.

It will be a welcome addition to the already ginourmous laundry pile. I can't wait.
