The alarm sounded at 5:30 this morning. But I think that was about the 20th time I had awaken since going to bed at 11:30 the night before. I think my mind had been active all night. I feel… tired.
But ready to go.
Our plane leaves at 8, so we’re heading out in a few minutes. There is an overall feeling of excitement. I really can’t even believe we get to do this!
However, I must admit, last night it felt wrong. As I was saying goodnight—and goodbye—to my kids, my heart was heavy. I’m not supposed to say goodbye to them for eight days??? It will be fine, but I told Jen last night, “I don’t want to do this ever again.” (And we haven’t even left yet!!)
It’ll be alright. I can’t wait to have my wife to myself for 8 days.
More along the way…
