Okay, so tomorrow (errr I guess it's really today... but I haven't gotten to sleep yet) I go to Vancouver Island for a Sebastian family reunion.
I can't help but feel like I've forgotten to pack something important.
Picture albums as requested by great aunt. check
clothing including extra socks etc. check
toiletries. check.
toothbrush to be added in morning after use.
sketchbooks. check.
pencils & pens etc to use with sketchbooks. Check.
camera. check - though must stop to get battery as it's dead.
blankets & pillow. check. Even fit in the suitcase!
list of buses & connection times to take to get to ferry. check.
mini water-gun shaped like an elephant. (it played a prominent role in my memories of the last family reunion I went to ten years ago *g*) check.
book to read. check.
backup book - grabbing it in the morning.
So what is it that I'm forgetting that I need desperately?
Lemme know if you can think of it before I have to take off in the late morning.
Note to self:
Must try to find someone who will admit to haveing pics of the flaming toiletpaper incident from 10 years ago. (Remember that Chrys?! *eg*)
Yeah, that's right, flaming toilet paper. Hey, Chrystal and I were young impressionable teens then... it was my older cousins who were the bad influence... christmas lights & decorations, a unicycle, an umbrella, flaming toilet paper, a sleeping bag and a cowboy hat. All combined with one nutty cousin, and you've got the most whispered about and shockingly non-evidenced event of my family reunion 10 years ago.
We used every damn camera that was left out on the tables in the hall that night(about 6 or 7 I'd say) and yet not one picture had surfaced 5 years ago when I asked 'bout it.
Hrm.
We'll do some more research this time... Find out who is not admitting to having the odd yet funny pics.
Someone must have them, and just didn't know what the hell they were of.

oh, hey!
I'm wearing your bracelet!Yup, I'm a bit nervous about seeing all these relatives I haven't seen in 10 years, and those that I have seen was at my dad's funeral so that was kind of a blur.
10 years ago, at least my cousin & friend Chrystal was roped into going with us. And my dad never forgot a name or face... with my grandfather's family of 10 kids and a combination of their children (30 or thereabouts) and grandchildren and great grandchildren running around, it gets confusing on which great aunt is which. *g*
And I have no idea who is gonna be there 'cept my cousin and her two kids who I've never seen (She's exactly 3 years older than me, I was her birthday present. *g*)
Okay, 'nough procrastinating... gotta find a book to read and double check my inventory
*snerk*
