As of today I will be leaving Buffalo in 12 days and still have a lot of things to get together before I leave! But in following advice from my father, and this advice seems to fit in any emotionally challenging situation, Just take it day by day, hour by hour, and step by step. By following that I can focus on the next thing I need to get before I can leave for France, a larger suitcase!! I am only bringing one suitcase because after arriving in Paris I will have to take a train to Angers and I really do not want to be carrying around several suitcases, so one large one should do!
