The Countdown Is On

My flight to Jordan is in exactly 2 weeks from tomorrow (Saturday).  I will fly out of SFO on September 1st and head to JFK in New York (which I'm sad I can't stay and visit since that is the one city I would love to visit!) and then from there fly directly to Amman.  Well after sitting on an airplane for 11 hours!!!  That is not the part I am looking forward to at all!

I've been asked often if I am busy getting ready to go.  I guess you could say that, but I have never been one to get ready for anything weeks in advance.  I've been asked if I am nervous.....I don't feel nervous yet but the anxiety will come because I always get that when I travel.  I really can't describe what I am feeling right now.  Part of me is looking forward to this new thing I am going to do and that I get to live somewhere else for a bit.  Part of me is sad for those I am leaving behind.  And part of me can't wait for a year to be over because I'm excited to see how I will be different when I return.  To think back over the next year.  

So the next couple of weeks I will continue to enjoy my time here, relax, do the things I love to do, hang out with those I love and just have fun!!!  I still have 2 weeks of summer here and I intend to make the most of it!
