Two weeks to go

Two more weeks at work that is - in theory 10 working days but it'll be more than that - today's Sunday and I expect to spend most of today 'working from home'. Pity there's no actual overtime pay attached to it, but the work just has to get done.
Anyway, the holiday - which, btw, I know I need to practice saying vacation while in the USA :-)
We've already packed a lot of our clothes - mostly we're taking summertime clothes and of course those sorts of clothes aren't all that high on the 'to wear' list in Canberra in July. Pretty sure I can fit everything I want into the suitcase, although there's still an outstanding question about whether the carry-on backpack will weigh less than seven kilos!
Adam and I will be going out shopping next weekend to stock up on food for him while we're away, although it's not really that big of a drama now. Even though he doesn't drive, both Woolies and Coles Online Shopping delivery services cover our place and he'll also have the little trailer to hook onto the trike if he needs to go out and buy stuff. So, if he starves while we're away, it'll be his own choice! Don't think that's really likely, but as I've said before, I'll be amazed if a single vegetable deliberately enters his mouth during that time!!
