Last night at this time we were soaring in the afterglow of the Oratorio.
Today was back to earth time, but with a pretty bumpy landing.
The fact is that — despite being totally excited to go — I’ve been struggling with the reality of packing for our trip to Europe.
It’s overwhelming for several reasons. The first and most obvious is the short amount of time between finishing the Oratorio and leaving (two days!).
There’s also the fact that we haven’t traveled internationally in almost four years, so all the prep is feeling sort of strange and unfamiliar.
Finally, we need to leave the apartment in decent shape because a friend from Ananda India will be staying here while we’re away.
So, yeah. I’m feeling a little stressed.
