I slept so badly last night. We are going on holiday. Well, Bub and I are going on holiday and Hub is joining us for a little while. We have cat sitters and Guinea Pig sitters all sorted. We are going late.
My main, er, excitment, is that I have to drive a left hand drive car in Spain and France, which I haven't done driving abroad for a long time. In fact the last time I drove in France was in the 1990's and that was in my own car. That was fine. And the left hand drive car was in Athens also in the 1990s. But if I can do that - drive in Athens - I can drive anywhere, right?
Still I am nervous about it. I am nervous about a lot of things, remembering everything, the house we are staying in, driving up a mountain, how Bub will get on, how Barcelona will be. All sorts of things. I thinkI couldn't sleep because my brain is continually going through lists of things to take and things to do. I think in all honesty the whole thing is really well organised and anything that isn't will be just dandy. But never the less. My brain is a whirr with checklists. And despite my efforts no amount of writing them down and deciding what to do will settle it.
I know also that there is a thin line between nervousness and excitement. That really its just the same sensations with a different mindset. So lets say I am really excited.

Nervousness v excitement. So true. Its all about the PR which you tell yourself I think
Enjoy xx
Hey, thanks so much for stopping by. Lovely to hear from you as always. I hope you have (are having?!) a fab hols and you're not too nervous. I know I would be too! Not sure I could do a drive like that. I did once teach myself routes round Sydney in Oz with a young one in the car, but it's same side driving :) And it was many years ago like you say! x
