Feel a bit out of touch. My head is in that just-woke-up state, even though I've been up for around 4 hours. Lying on the floor, back to the wall with my laptop on my lap; trying to get some work done, some shopping planned out, some words written. It's not working out so well. I should go …
Relief
It took a while to set in, this feeling.

Tickets Booked – Gearing Up to Go
So we booked our flight tickets just a couple of days ago. Still waiting on hearing back from IAG Cargo, the company that's in charge of taking pets on British Airway's planes, but the rest is all in place or needs to get done just a few days before our flight.
