Last minute of everything before departure....

(Hmmm.. I wonder what´s wrong with the typeface.. changing between different sections in the text... strange..?) 

Well, anyway; Tomorrow evening I´m leaving for Sweden, and tonight I´m doing last-minute-packing in the middle of the night as usual. Don´t have very much to pack though, as I can´t bring any of my clothes from Cambodia to Sweden for very obvious reasons - I won´t be able to wear them without freezing to death. My beloved husband told me over the phone that there was snow in Stockholm yesterday... Brrr.... 

I´m experiencing a very stressful situation due to a heavy work load at the office, and I´m in great need of some time off. But at the same time, I find that the work load makes it very difficult to let go of work, to not think about it. A sign that this is probably the very best time to let go. This´ll be a good practice for a workoholic like me;  to let go of work even if I think I can´t (yes I can!), to focus on my private life for a change (a good balance between your professional and private life is necessary and very important), to learn how to leave work at a time when I´m needed the most (they´ll be just fine). Work isn´t everything. It´s so easy to say, but more difficult to practice. But I´m working on it. Hopefully it´ll feel better when this very-last-minute-of-everything  are over and done with, and I´m sitting on the plane. 

Can´t wait to see my loved ones!
