Kansas City, Here I Come!

DearBoy and I are gearing up for a road trip. We leave tomorrow night and are headed to glorious Kansas City, Missouri to visit his family. Don't be jealous, y'all. I know everyone wants to come with us, but we're going this trip alone.

Even MissKitty is staying at the house alone. She has her boys that will come and tend to her whims. She has plenty of food and I always leave a tv on for her, so she has something to watch.

Tonite, as I was scrubbing the kitchen floor, I thought about the random things I do when I go away...

· The house has to be clean before I leave. I can't rest in a hotel just thinking that my floor at home is dirty.

· I always put a new razor and bar of soap in the shower right before I leave the house. I like coming home to clean razors and real-sized bars of soap.

· I pack enough clothes for twice the amout of time I'm going to be gone. I've always done this....and then I shop when I go away and I don't wear most of what I take with me, but I like knowing the clothes are there.

· The week before I leave, I don't read my weekly magazines at the house. I save them for the car and the hotels.....and I get a lot of magazines.
