Scared stupid :)

So I am now just over a week away from jumping on a plane for the trip of my lifetime (so far). I admit, I am scared beyond belief right now. There have been moments these last few days that I have had serious doubts about going and hubby has had to reinforce how good it is going to be and quell my fears to get me to look forward to it with excitement again. I'm scared of leaving my kids behind for 12 days, particularly the two littlest ones. I imagine that they'll change heaps and I'll miss it. On the other hand, I know in order to be a better mum I need this break away from them to rest and reinvent myself (it sounds corny, I know, but after more than 4 years of staying home I need something new to happen to me). I'm sure once I get my bags packed and get to the airport I will be bubbling with excitement (especially if my upgrade to business comes through!!) and looking forward to being able to chill out and relax on my 14 hour journey to LA. I'm sure I am just suffering from the jittters. I'll update how I feel this time next week, when I have only 2 days to go!!
