Three days left and today, I've decided, is the day that I have to come face to face with the fact that I am leaving. Usually it's easiest to know in the back of my head something is going to happen and expect nothing, that way I don't end up disappointed and I don't spend a month worrying about the unknown. Let's face it...we all could spend a life time worrying about that.
So, today I started packing and after getting all my shirts and tops into the suitcase I have half of it full. For those of you who do not see the problem I face it's that I still have pants, pajamas, swim suits, shoes, sock & such still to put in the suitcase... I think I'm doomed.
I guess this means I must simplify. As Christians we are always being told to simplify our lives so we can concentrate more on God... this applies to packing also I've found! (except for simplify your luggage only makes more room for more.. well.. luggage!)
Right now I've got a load of clothes tumbling in the dryer and a few scholarships left to deal with before I'm off to Walmart which I'm finding to be a blessing these days. It's amazing how you can pretty much get everything you need from one store!
I'll be sure to keep you updated on more interesting things next time. Please keep me in your prayers maybe even add in a prayer for an improvement in my packing skills!!
God Bless and All the Best,
Ashleigh Bingham
