Moving Forward...

March 9, 2010
Today the sorting and packing for 3 months on the road begins in earnest. We’ve got the car (although waiting on one specific part and very much hoping it comes in today so that can be finished!), we’ve got the presentations ready to go, and we’ve been able to pretty much find the stuff we need out of storage.
Some of the stuff we’ve got in storage has been amusing to come across. When we packed stuff away, I can specifically recall a few items that I was really sure we would want to have, and I haven’t given them a second thought until accidentally coming across them when looking for something else. My perspective on just how much junk I need to surround myself with to feel comfortable has definitely changed.
One recent ‘up’ was meeting family for lunch yesterday at a genuine Mexican restaurant. It’s been a really long time since I’ve enjoyed real Mexican food – all the right spicy flavors. Yummy!

Well, the part didn’t come in for the car today (due tomorrow…), but the title came through, which means we were able to get our Official Permanent License Plate. It cost a lot less than I expected (Yay! Small car!), and the queue at the License Office was short and fast. Nice.
