Has our oven caught fire yet?

First post here, at T-minus 15 days to the trip. Navigating the unknown territory of blogging. Hopefully this endeavor will turn out to be a great memory saving piece to record our crazy adventures across the pond. 

My life is in list-mode right now. Frantically trying to figure out which list I need to either create, or check off. Many of these lists are in varying states of composition and completion. All of which are the current bane of my existence right now, albeit necessary. 

To any of the people in my life that have to deal with me in person these next 15 days, I sincerely apologize if you don't recognize the frantic possessed person in front of you, I promise she'll be back at some point to normal. The scary thing is that everything  seems to not be going so badly. Where is the utter chaos at work? Where is the oven that starts on fire four days before leaving for Antigua without the kids? Where is the world changing immunization conundrum at work for this year's flu season? Where is the last minute appointment change that does NOT fit into my schedule? Wait, that one did happen to me...and the new time delay safe at work hates me, and only me apparently.  OK things are their normal pre-vacation chaos...I was worried there for a minute.

I take heart knowing that no matter what happens, this trip WILL happen, as unbelievable as it still is to me, even this close. I still cannot believe I will be in London in 15 days, for the trip of a lifetime, with the love of my life, my best friend, and her amazing husband. 

Bring it England. Here we come.
