48 days to be exact.

48 days until I leave the life I have known for 20 and a half years to embark on a new adventure.

48 days until I have to pack the "necessary" things in life into a couple suitcases and go traipsing off to Europe.

48 days until I have to hold the tears back when I hug my family tightly for the last time until May.

48 days until I know if I can do this or not.


I keep making new packing lists with clothes, toiletries, socks, coats, mittens, dresses, passport listed in notebooks.

I think I need a different list.

1. Plane letters
2. Photo album
3. Rosary
4. Pictures of my dear familia
5. Crucifix
6. More pictures
7. A new notebook
8. Family picture?

48 days.  It's coming.
