Getting Ready

Well we are finally in the final steps of getting packed and ready. The van sure seems small for the six of us for four hardish days, but I am going to have to get myself away from my comfort zone of always wanting things to be the way I want them and deal with it all. I need to keep in mind why we are doing this, because as the weeks and months have gone on I have learned it really isn’t easy and there are way easier ways to have “fun” than all the preparation and time needed, but there probably isn’t a better cause, or one that has touched more people. It feels like Cancer is everywhere. You just mention it to anyone and they have multiple stories to tell, if not about themselves about loved ones, friends and acquaintances. The details, crowdedness, time around people really have a potential to get me in a very uptight and bad mood, but this will be a good way for me to learn that it isn’t bad. Our millions of our friends and loved ones and strangers are going through way worse as a part of their everyday life.
