Two months and counting!

So I got the last set of lab results I needed to complete my SECOND medical packet. I photocopied it all and it amounts to a small book. It's sealed in the FedEx envelope and ready to be sent to DC tomorrow. So now we just wait for re-clearance and the staging packet. 

In the meantime, I'm separating my life into 4 piles:

1. Haven't worn/used in a year. Won't need for PC or after. This is all getting donated/going in a yard sale

2. Need for PC, but also need before I leave. This goes on the packing list and then back where it was.

3. Need for PC, but don't need before June 4th. This goes in the spare room in the pile near my duffle bag for real packing later. 

4. Don't need for PC, maybe need/would like while I'm still home, and will want when I'm back. Maybe like some jeans and shirts, incase I destroy all my clothes in the next 2 years, and things like momentos, photos etc. These either stay where they are or get packed in a box in my closet so my room is more or less clean and useable while I'm not here.

PC is great for purging and figuring out what you really need and what is excess. I've found a lot of excess so far. 

Later, once I've done my final pack, I'll post on here my packing list so future PC/Peru volunteers will have a reference.. lord knows other people's packing lists, personal experiences and opinions have really helped me prepare for this journey!

Hasta Luego...
