Ain't Things Funny?

I have been trying to pack my suitcases today. The medium size case is packed, it's full of gifts. The small case, my carryon, was giving me trouble. It's supposed to be a maximum of 15 pounds, well the only thing in it is my laptop [7 lbs] and my meds [?] and my camera [1 lb]. The total bag weighs 19 lbs. I know damned well my meds and the bag doesn't weigh 11 pounds. Finally said to hell with it, let it weigh 19 pounds.

Ok, now we're on to the big suitcase, which are my clothes, shoes, etc. I've been working on this ALL day with the help of my BIL and sister. I finally got frustrated and quit. They left for a company dinner at 5:15 PM and by 5:45 PM I had that sucker packed. That was the comment in CAH I made about maybe not going because I'd be in jail for murder. I'm sure there will be some odds and ends I'll need to stick in, but the big part is now done. Thank the powers that be!

All I really need to do [that I'm aware of at the moment] is some laundry tomorrow and then Monday go to the bank for Traveler's Checks and cash. Then about noon time, I'm out of here for Portland.
