Good part: Ok, the count down begins until the trip I like to call, "the great back east trip." Here in AZ, "going back east" can mean traveling to New Mexico or Texas. So I have added "great" to the title to really give it some "oomph." We are going way east, not India, but Virginia and then up to Syracuse. We are really looking forward to this. We have not seen Nick's family (except Jeff) in over a year. We always have so much fun with them!!!
Not so good part: I am getting some major anxiety about making sure I remember everything and get all my ducks in a row before the trip. The main anxiety comes from the plane trip itself. Also, will all go according to plan? (anticipatory worry) I only ate some cookie and a few bites of a hamburger because my stomach is in knots. As a nurse, I know there are medications for this. ;-) As a good patient, I take my 1/2 tab of Xanax before flight.
Good part: Due to anxiety for the plane ride, I have lost 5 pounds.
Not so good part: The anxiety only gets worse and worse as the days approach closer to the trip.
Good part: The anxiety goes away once the plane touches down.
Not so good part: It starts all back up again as we prepare to go home...
MIND OVER MATTER. Damn Arizona for being 2500 miles from Virginia!!
