Just a few more hours...

It's my second to last night at home until August. It feels a little unreal that I'll be gone from home so long, moving from place to place almost every day. Tomorrow will be a day of last minute shopping and chores. The huge table in our basement is my staging area, and it's slowly getting loaded up.  My clothes are almost packed, except for a few last loads of laundry.

It's coming down to deciding last minute what is worth the space and what is not. How many books do I bring? How many pairs of shoes? I don't want to over-pack, but on the other hand, five weeks is a long time!  What entertainments should I bring for myself, for those evenings alone?

I'm nervous about being on my own for two and a half weeks, finding safe places to stay, and over-exerting myself. On the other hand, I'm incredibly excited to visit places I've never been before, as well as re-visit some beloved places.  I'm also excited about the people that I'm going to see along the way.

I have little to no idea of what to expect from this trip, other than that I know I will always remember it.
