Closure on the packing front...

 Okay. It is done. The stuff I'm shipping to Canada is pretty much ready to go. I've already contacted the shipping company and forked out the *glurch!* £230 needed to get 'em home. I've also contacted the airline and found out, much to my relief, that, yes, I can simply bring the didges with me and check them in. If they go over my weight limit, oh well. For their weight, they'll actually cost, at most, half to bring along than it would be to ship 'em. I'll also bring the damn printer along with me as well. Again, I'm not too concerned about the excess baggage charge for that.  

And, yes, I'm pretty close to ready to go for my trip to Germany tomorrow, even though I've run a wee late in doing so. Oh well. So I'll be shy a little sleep tomorrow. That shouldn't prove much of a problem.

I'll set two alarms tomorrow morning, though, just in case. Actually, mostly in case we have a repeat of what happened this afternoon when a lightning strike knocked out power in several neighourhoods for a couple of hours... just as I was stepping into the shower. That shower, given the water heater requires electricity to run, was both quick and chilly. *chuckle*

Well, I'm off to bed and tomorrow, to GERMANY!

Auf Wiedersehen!!!
