Are We Ready?

It is an easy question to answer. "Are you ready for the trip?" I've been asked several times, and the answer is still NO in spite of the fact that the plane leaves Thursday afternoon. With luck I'll be ready when we leave for the airport. Valerie is a great planner; she could have been ready weeks ago. Then there's me. I like travel; I always have. It's the preparation and packing I don't like. Valerie says if it were up to me I'd take the kitchen sink, but I wouldn't. We're going to England, Jordan, Israel, and Scotland, and I'm pretty sure all those countries have sinks. But just in case....

In the days leading up to a trip, my mind finds too many other things to process. Among the distractions this last week are a broken tooth for Valerie and a broken hip for her mother, and I briefly wondered if we had misunderstood God's leading for this trip. But with no surgery planned for her mother and a plan in place for the tooth, it turns out that his timing is right on.

So ready or not we leave in a few days. And if you want, and if I have time and an internet connection, you'll be able to follow along with Clanbrewer on the Move. ✈
