How to Get by in times of change

"Sean?"

"Yes?"

"Just a little reminder that today we travel."

"Yes. So? "

"Just ask you to remember that everything will be OK and, well, to be pretty."

Confession time: I'm not the most laidback traveller. I can get a little, um ... Let's say, ' snippy '.

When traveling, my OCD kicks into gear. I am constantly check if zippers are closed, passports are in the right pocket, that money is put away, and that we are on schedule.

And that is just for me!

Combine that with doing the same thing for my wife and each of my 3 children.

Needless to say, because of the increased level of stress while traveling, I am not always the most fun person to be around, especially for my wife.
