Counting Down

I am leaving to go to NY in four days. I have such mixed feelings about it that I feel I need to write a list.

Pros:

• Getting out of Greensboro (always a good thing)
• Long drive means lots of time to myself listening to loud music and singing (which I cannot do)
• Seeing my friends who I have not seen in far too long
• Seeing my one month old nephew for the first time and I guess my brother and sister in law
• Seeing my sister
• Getting to eat really good NY food
• Bagels
• Break from work

Cons:

• Being so busy with work this week because my coworker is on vacation and not having a lot of time to rest and chill out before driving for nine hours
• Keith not coming with me
• Being away from Keith and the girls
• Leaving the baby (it just seems too soon)
• Having to leave at the butt-crack of dawn to come home on Sunday
• Coming home to a total mess at work (maybe)

Okay...I guess I feel a little better. I am really looking forward to the alone time. I definitely need some space from everyone to clear my head a little. I still hate that Keith is not going to be there though.
