It's go time.

I promised my family and friends that I would keep them updated about my up and coming trip. For those of you that know me I leave for Korea February 19th. I am at that moment in the pre-game (pre-trip) where the nerves are getting limited. I am not on my last nerve but the few left are getting mighty short. I dont want to start off with negative thoughts. I am super excited about the trip. I am looking forward to teaching, to the food, and the amazing shopping.
I am sad to believing my son. My son and his father are being really supportive. My son is learning Korean in the car when he is with me and he has helped me pack (his stuff). I dont think he understands how long, but he understands he gets to visit. I have had lots of support from my family and friends and look forward to updating them.
Back to the go time part of the blog. I am not finished packing. I am still weeding out clothes and shoes, appliances, furniture, etc. I have lost all sleep and I have the start of a wicked cold. In the end I wouldn't change it for the world because when it is all done I am in Korea.
I get to throw the deuces to my job tomorrow. For people that know of my job in the fifth ring of hell (also known as reverse mortgage counseling), they know my boss lives right upstairs. There is a small voice in the back of my head that says right before I leave for my flight; go upstairs and donkey punk that fool and say "You know why"! Trust me ya'll. He had it coming. The good person inside me says," that fool aint worth a case". In the end, I am going to Korea.
Part of me is just ready to go. I told my friend, it would easier to set my apart ablaze and collect the insurance money, then I could stop packing. Again for those that know me and my fire starting rants, this statement should not be a surprised. For new comers, "I was just playing. Unless one of ya'll know somebody. Nah, for real. JUST PLAYING."
I am nervous and not sure what to take. Big girl shopping has gotten better in the US, but in other countries it is desert storm with no sign of water. I can have stuff made, but I own nice healthy size clothes. I dress my booty off. So with that said I am having trouble parting with my clothes, purses, and shoes. Not material issues, worried about lack of options. I have gotten it down to two suitcase and might need a third. I think I am doing good, considering the fact I owned 3 to 4 months of clothes and shoes before packing.
I leave in less than seven days, it's go time.
