From 52 sleeps to now 13 sleeps until I leave for Jordan.  It sort of snuck up on me to be honest.  I found myself looking at my schedule last week and thinking that I needed to move my arse and start getting my things ready.  Between work and the rest of my life, I don’t have too much time left to get ready.

As soon as I finish this blog post, I’m going to dig up my suitcase.  Yeah!

It’s gearing up to be a very busy couple of months.  Right after my trip, I’ll be moving back home.  Yahoo!  My tenants bought a house and will be gone by the time I get back – a month early.  Even though it hit me a bit below the financial belt, I can’t wait to go back home.  This means I get to enjoy the whole summer.  I’m so excited.

BUT, I will admit that the thought of not having money to travel anymore, once I’m back home, really lets the air out of my balloon in a big way.  I’m giving myself until October, after Peru, and then I will decide if I’ll put the house up for sale.  I LOVE my house.  But if it costs me my freedom to travel, I don’t know if I can sacrifice that.

This is what I’ve been up to:
