Packing


This is a picture of our life right now. We're making progress on packing, but it might not look like progress. Also, we're finding that the ratio of 6 suitcases to 10 months of living means we have to leave some things out. Lots of things. Vital things. I can't take those ten pairs of shoes, nor the extra bottle of my favorite shampoo. Fortunately, we're going to a warm climate (although not as warm as many people think - we hear generally the temps are in the mid-70s to low-80s), so we won't have bulky winter clothes. Of course, the sobering fact is that we will have more stuff than whole families that we're going to help out. No doubt we'll come home with a different perspective on needs vs. wants.
