I need to pack!
My work week consists of “Mom” Monday through Wednesday, then “Mom/salesperson at a cloth diaper store” for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. This Monday coming up, I’m heading to unconference in Stony Point, NY, and while I’ve thought of a few things I need to pack and prepare for our family of four to survive 3 days/2 nights away from home, I have yet to pack anything. And it’s stressing me out! Tomorrow morning, I’m babysitting. Saturday morning, I’m working. Sunday morning, we’re going to two different church services. Then Monday morning we’re leaving. I guess that means I’ll be spending Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon frantically packing, grocery shopping, and generally running around like a chicken with my head cut off. Despite all that, I’m really excited! Looking forward to meeting new people, reestablishing my connection with God, and doing some forward-thinking about church and how to be church. I’m also hopeful that we’ll come away with a sense of whether we should stick it out through this [incredibly] rough patch with our church, or find something new. Lots on the horizon, and I am ready! (Though still not packed.)
