I FINALLY Packed my Suitcase...

Dear Friends and Family,

I am finally packed and ready to go... had a little scare this morning as we searched one of the attics for my suitcase and it wasn't there! We checked the other one, though, and we found it. I spent about and hour or two packing... I think I did a pretty good job. I'm bringing several pairs of shorts and three pairs of pants, and enough shirts to last me a bit more than a week. Those packing cubes sure are nifty... everything is so neat and tidy. Let's hope TSA doesn't decide to have a hay day in my suitcase!! I think I will have to move a couple more things out of my big bag and put it into my carry-on so it's not too heavy... I was almost done packing and it weighed 49.4 pounds... it's surely like 51 or 52 lbs now... we'll see how it goes. WAIT! I just looked on the website and it says if your stay exceeds 29 days (mine is 35) you can take 30kg (66lbs!)... So I am safe! I'll print this just in case, though!

I added a link to the right of the page (on the blog) to the Google picture application, Picasa. I think I'll post them on Facebook, too, but just in case someone's reading this w/o Facebook, they can click this link.

So I think that's it... other than the weather in Germany is gorgeous right now...in Münster, it's 71 degrees!


Love,
Caitlin

Tick, Tock....

Nope, still haven't packed yet... I REALLY need to get on that, don't I? I just hate packing... We had the going-away get together last night and it was a lot of fun! I am really going to miss you guys...

I have to say it, tomorrow it is going to feel soooo good to NOT get up at 6am and put on scrubs... I'm going to get up at like 7:30 then go to SPINNING at 9am... it should be a really difficult class, the instructor is pretty tough... I neeeeeeeeeed to work out!!

And then I will PACK... Tuesday I am having lunch with my grandma and Wednesday I am supposed to be getting a manicure with my Oma but I think that won't work... I want to get a pedicure before I leave!!

Then Thursday will be the final day of prep before leaving... Friday is it, guys, wowowowow... crazy stuff. I hope I don't forget anything.
