My last day of work before my trip, and as usual before a vacation, I'm much more stressed than excited. Trying to get loose ends tied up both here and at home, all the while listening to my mother obsess over the most trivial details of packing...no wonder I have high blood pressure! But I'm going to do my damndest to get on that plane on Wednesday and leave it all behind me...well, except for my mother...but I will lecture her in the airport to do the same thing. I refuse to pay a third of my savings for a trip where I'm a stressed out mess!
