New York Trip begins
12.12.08
The alarm rang at 2:00 am and we jumped out of bed. I felt great and in control, jumped into the clothes that I had carefully laid out, gathered the remainder of my list and packed them. Paul is running around pulling clothes and throwing them into a suitcase. He calls me from the front of the house – “where is my leather coat?” I run to help him find it and then go back to packing. Two minutes later – “where is a box for the wine?” I run to help him find a box to wrap the wines. “Where is the bubble wrap?” Now I am behind and still have on no make up. Two minutes later he says “It’s 2:30 already. Where did the time go?” He is not even dressed yet. We looked like 2 of the 3 stooges running in circles and going nowhere. I get back to hair and makeup. Five mnutes later he is yelling “Let’s go!” How does de do that?! He is dressed and finished packing in five minutes. More later..
