Crunch Time!

Bags are packed and we're ready to go ...

I am hoping our 2 main pieces following us to Chongqing are under the 44 lb weight restriction ... my scale says they are but it is not working all that well! Hmmm ... maybe that's the root of MY problem!
I had the pool chemicals tested, the car seat inspected, my extremities waxed and my toes polished all this morning! And then ... Nat ... I RELAXED all afternoon by the pool! I'm going to recheck everything this evening ... just for good measure and then, that's that! I'm actually feeling oddly calm at the moment ... I'm sure that will pass! I do have some disappointing news ... my NB buddy who I was hoping to meet and travel with in China has experienced a glitch and will be travelling a week later than the rest of our group. I am happy for her in that her husband will be healed enough from surgery to join her ... guess things have a way of working out the way they are supposed to! I will certainly miss you Penny but wish you ALL the BEST on your journey to Lisa!
I really hope to be able to manage posting from China (Penny was to be my expert ... she didn't know that!). If I'm not able to manage that I will try to at least email a photo or two through my First Class (dkearney@smcdsb.on.ca) or Hotmail (dkearney67@hotmail.com) accounts.
My only worry now is for my little 'guy' ... he may be very sad over these next two weeks. He will be in loving care with family and with his brother Lucky who has been staying with us for the past week. These two really get along well and they are just too darn cute for words ...

That's about all I can think of for now ... tomorrow will be my last post from home ... unbelievable isn't it?! I am in awe of it all ...

I'll be chasing you guys through China! I only wish they could work the schedule so we'd be able to see you and the group for at least a minute!
