Hi everyone -

I am actually at this moment, well not at this very moment since I am typing but basically at this moment packing to leave for the U.K.

My flight leaves at 6:45 am tomorrow (yuck!) and I of course waited until the last possible minute before I started going through my stuff. I did not even have my luggage until last night.

And yet, still today I am finding time to go look at a place to hold the wedding. You may think I am so organised and in love that at any and every possible moment I search for wedding venues, but the reality is that once again I left it to the last minute. Besides it is one last chance for my mom and I to spend some time alone. The next time I will see her is December. Tonight I am spending one last night with my Dad's side as well (both of my parents are remarried - and in case you are wondering, yes it is making the whole wedding crazy).

Okay, I have to get back to work. When you hear from me next I will be in London. Wish me luck!
