To pack, or not to pack?

So today after I rolled out of bed someone informed me that instead of leaving Thursday, higher authority had decided to leave Wednesday. I had entertained plans to begin on packing today, but when I found this out I decided those plans actually had to be carried through. Bummer number one. A while after lunch (notice that I put off packing until after lunch!) I went through my drawers and pulled out most of my clothes. My thought was that since I am going to live in Guatemala, I might as well take most of my clothes. So I rolled my clothes and packed them away. The suitcase was mostly full, so I decided to weight it. 48 pounds, and I still wasn't done. Bummer number two. Instead of sorting through what I had packed, I threw more stuff in (not clothes this time), and decided to sort on Wednesday. After spending the evening with a friend, I rolled back home and saw more books I will have to pack. Bummer number three.

Long story short: Wednesday has every promise of being a very busy packing day in a not so fun way! (Bummer number four) and too my knowledge Jim hasn't begun his packing yet.

And yes, we are still leaving tomorrow too!
