The agony of patience

Time is slipping by quickly.  I am ready to go and repacking my backpack every other day.  I have storage garage organization to complete and my classes to finish up.  Also I have little reading material for my summer session classes lined up as yet.  Talk about last minute arrangements!  I have been exhausted simply from the strain of organizing, then I realize I can't find something that I need now, before I leave, and frustration ensues.  Well, it will all work out, and I will repack again tomorrow, but it would probably be better if I start living out of my backpack now so I don't get so confused every time I need something that I clearly have duplicates of because of my packing organization (one set to leave here, one set to take with me). 

My anxiety about travel is the most difficult.  I don't like to fly much at all.  Once I am on the ground I think I will be much better.  Once I get to Le Puy I think I will be ready.  But my stomach is in knots and I can't seem to sleep a night through.  This too shall pass.  I still have dental pain in my jaw.  I hope it isn't infection and just soreness from all the drilling on it. 

But the weather has been good here. The giant marshmallow has enjoyed playing with her cousins.  And I have moved out of the rat race, which feels great.  Time will pass and I will soon be on my way.  Thank God!
