First Twinge of NERVES!

I would like to think that I am a fairly thorough individual. I plan, save, dream and organize ( don't laugh, I can be organized about some things!)

By doing this, I assumed that I would be taking all of the worry and nerves out of my trip. To my dismay...didn't work!

I felt my first; down in the pit of your stomach, pre-puking, light headed feeling earlier tonight. I think because I have said my goodbyes and now have nothing to do but wait.

Staying busy has always been my way of avoiding any true feelings, because undoubtedly my fears are displayed through pangs of physical discomfort ( see above!)

I suppose it could be worse! Just imagine how I would feel if I had not prepared emotionally for my travels...not good!

Without my family and friend's support...I don't know that this trip would have been possible. I'm stronger than I have ever been, and that is due to the love of the above mentioned.

I love to say "the above mentioned" sounds lawyerly!
