No, I'm not panicking, I always rock back and forth

I leave for the Ukraine in 18 hours. 

18 hours.  I think I just started having a panic attack.

I still have so many things to do
  • get an international driver's license: so that I can drive during our tours and my father will not terrify us all nor be killed by his wife (justifiably)
  • finish packing: I was packed, but numerous people have sent late packages to go to my father.  So, I am repacking now into a bigger bag.  No, you cannot send anything with me.
  • buy little kleenex things: Lyn warned me and now Ky has experienced it first hand.  As she wrote, "TP is a privilege not a right."  I may not go to the bathroom the entire time I'm in Ukraine.
  • organize my knitting: what I will take on the plane, what I will leave in my bag, what I plan to do if I run out of things to knit while on the plane.  I checked both Canada and USA security lists and all allow knitting!  Phew!
  • kiss my puppy enough to make up for 2 weeks of no kisses.  
  • kiss my husband enough to make up for 2 weeks of no kisses.  (This will be harder to do than kissing the dog)
  • sleep tonight.  In time to be taken to the airport by 4:30am.  In time for my 6am flight.  In time for my 18 hour trip.  

I'ma die now.

  5. Wait--you have to get an international driver's licence? Is this true for everywhere or just Ukraine? Will I have to get one for England?
