So… I haven’t packed

Remember when I said that I had my shit together?

Well, I do in all the ways bar one. A significant one if you ask me.

I have stocked up on driving snacks and water. I have filled my windscreen wiper fluid. I have even purchased a (cheap) GoPro knockoff to record my trip as I drive.

Are any of these things actually in the car?

NOPE!

My stuff is woefully strewn across my room with no rhyme or reason.

So why haven’t I started packing when I’m leaving tomorrow?

That pesky fear again.

That horrid paralysing anxiety that keeps me stuck in my bed, writing this blog you’re reading now instead of actually loading the car.

There’s something so… final…so real about putting my things in my car where I’ll be for the next 2 months. It’s almost as if I’m really going which sends my brain spinning.

But I do leave tomorrow. The accommodation is booked. There are no deliveries or important documents to wait for. The journey must begin tomorrow.

So get it together Olivia. We’re leaving tomorrow come what may. It’s up to you if you want your clothes to come with you or not!

Ta ta for now x
