A quarter of a century's worth of longing, wishing, hoping
6 months of planning, strategizing, researching
... and yet I stand before my closet and exclaim...
"I have nothing to wear!"
...enter Pinterest.
Today is packing day and slightly overwhelmed is an understatement. I've been so busy picking out bed&breakfasts, researching historical sights, and memorizing menus of local pubs, I haven't given my wardrobe much thought. Now, I am fully aware that I am limited to roughly 25lbs of luggage if Dan and I are going to try and squeeze into one suitcase, so the trick will be picking items I can easily wear several times.
Or we could always get to know the interior of a quaint Irish laundromat!
Obviously, the added pressure of knowing each day will be cataloged for all eternity doesn't help, but I've been warned that the only things I'll actually be wearing are as follows:

I cannot believe this is already happening... time has flown!
And it's hard to believe it's been a year since we were getting ready for our last adventure abroad!

Have a very happy St. Patty's Day friends!!
*Cheers!*

So blogger kind of hates me when it comes to your blog and hasn't shown an update from you in a few weeks. Imagine my surprise when I stop by to check and see for sure--you have two-weeks' worth of updates! Ah! I think you're in Ireland right now (so jealous), but I thought I'd leave a comment anyway. I enjoyed catching up on your life through blog and your words spoke to me deeply more than once. (I thought it best that I don't leave like 8 comments on every one of your posts I wanted to comment on). I remembered why I really like your writing style. And I can't wait to read all about your trip to Ireland when you get back! : ]
