Packing, ugh as if it is fun when you are moving across town, state, or country, it is even more blah when you are moving to another country entirely. I think the hardest part is that I am such a pack rat (thanks Grandma) and I get so sentimental about things. It doesn't help that when you have those things that are totally "throw" worthy that you got them from your aging grandmother who "branded" them somehow. When I say "branded" I mean she literally wrote Love Grandma with the year or something of the sort. It makes it even harder to throw away when you are leaving the country because there is that chance that something could happen to her while you are gone.
Anyways, I have my luggage purchased and a pile of "this is going to Japan" stuff strung out on the couch. I should probably pack that soon it would make it easier to see the space and feel the weight of it. Well I just wanted to try and start a new blog, be patient with me on this thanks.
