This whole packing thing is exhausting. I managed to get everything I'll need by Friday, but now it's a question of weeding out what I don't need/don't have enough space to take with me. I'm making good progress, but it's taking forever. I also had to pack up all the stuff I'm not taking with me into boxes that I'll be leaving at my parents' house (thank you Mom and Dad!)
Anyway, here's my updated picture of the 'during' process. I can't wait for it all to be done! I found it really helpful to check out the blogs of other volunteers for packing lists and ideas, so I'm going to post my packing list in a few days. After about a year of living in Botswana I'm going to go back to that list and highlight the items I found incredibly useful and cross out the ones I never use.
Three days until I leave for staging, four days until staging actually starts, and five days until I leave for Botswana. It's crunch time.
