I can never decide!

As usual, I have waited till the last minute to pack and, as usual, I am waffling over what to pack. I've also been running last minute errands and doing laundry all day. Since I have to be up at 2:30am, I certainly can't wait to do any last minute packing then. It has been a very stressful week and I am so glad to be leaving for a few days. I have no idea what to expect and that is simutaneously daunting and exciting.

Last night was pretty exciting, too. I can't recall ever being so captivated by watching election coverage before. I was switching stations left and right to avoid any commercials. I tried to stay awake for all the speeches but since some stressful work stuff kept me awake the night before and since I had worked all day, I just couldn't make it.

Brandon has play practice tonight so I better get busy again.

Replying to my comment with a "DUH!"

I'd even read back through your other posts but for some reason the Haiti part didn't jump out at me. How could I forget something so HUGE? You'll be back home again by the time you read this. I hope you had a wonderful and inspiring time!

The election was exciting to watch here in Canada. I am glad Obama won.

You are leaving already? WOW. I watched a special on Haiti the other day and it was so sad. I think you are very courageous to be going.

Have a safe trip. (((HUGS)))

Watching the TV coverage was very exciting! I made it through the speeches but then had to hang it up.

Good luck with the trip. I hope you have a wonderful, safe, life-changing, people-connecting, God-filled trip. I'll be praying for you!

Take lots of pictures!

Travel mercies for you, my dear. And I'm praying that you'll be blessed even as you are a blessing to others during this very exciting trip.
