!!!!!COLORADO!!!!!

So yeah, there was a deal going on with Southwest Airlines - and on December 3rd I will be leaving to visit my very best friend in the world, Jenny, in Colorado. Yippie!!!

However, since I'm a Texas girl, I've since realized that I'm really not very prepared for the trip. :) Any and all suggestions will not be taken lightly by this "not used to cold weather" girl. So, please, please advise!

So far, I've realized that I need jammies. I do not have warm jammies. Well, at least none that fit me right now. So, I'm considering getting myself one of these (maybe not from this company, though - they don't have very many options in my size): Snug As A Bug. Actually, this is the one I really want: Sock Monkey! But, I'm waiting on a question to verify how the sizes run...the size I need is probably too tall. That's the problem I've run across at any place that sells these. They seem to think height and weight are proportional......um, no!

So ok, I need jammies. Then, I realized, I may not have enough sweaters. It's not usually necessary to wear many sweaters here in Texas, and even when I do need to be warm, a jacket usually works well outside and inside the heat is on, so I'm usually comfy. I think I may have enough sweaters, but I will have to be sure.

Other than that, I really don't know. I do have a pair of older boots...I'll have to try them on because I don't wear them very often. I'll have to talk to Jenny to make sure there's not something else essential I need, but I think that's just about it. I've always been a pretty light traveler....well, to me anyway! I can definitely travel light if I have to, so I just plan to bring 1 suitcase to check in, my CPAP machine in it's case (doesn't go against my 1 personal and 1 extra carry-on), my laptop (for my 1 extra) and then something else for my 1 personal that will fit my purse (that may be a challenge).

So yeah, I'm going to Colorado. I'm so excited!!!! Can't you tell? :)
