Today I am (starting to be) a holiday-preparer...

...it's like the pre-stage to being a holiday-maker

We're heading off tomorrow for an Easter + break...
Looking forward to:
time as a family
hanging out at a youth camp
tenting in Ballarat and (somewhere on the) Great Ocean Road.


There's a bit to do
This working fultime lark doesn't leave much time for
car maintenance and repairs
buying "extra" items we never used to be able to squeeze into our little car,
(like a lantern)
finding police checks
completing child safe training.
And packing.
And buying our gear for the "op shop formal"

I am glad of the love of camping that my parents instilled in me.
I am glad my husband and kids share such a love.

I am glad we have a house- and stellar(cat)-sitter, who needed a place to stay.
I am glad the mechanic made space for our car (and that it is still under warantee)
I am glad my thesis will be here when I return.
I am glad I worked a couple of hours last night that completed something someone was waiting on.

And I am glad of 10 days stretching before me.
Full of potential.
