To Do

Finish packing. (You mean that can be FINISHED?)
Look for that list of things not to forget to pack. Sigh and decide to recreate it.
Wonder idly if baby is sick or teething after sleepless night of much Tylenol.
Run errands while helpful teenage babysitter plays with oldest, including trip to grocery, dry cleaner, and – oh dear, what was the other thing?
Make a list of things to do today.
Check on sleeping baby and plugged in kiddo.
Wonder if I should take a shower or continue tooling around online.
Go searching for the to do list, and glance at the clock. Baby’s not up yet (is it worth trying to take a quick shower or is it to close to wake up time?), sitter will be here in a bit…
Put basket of wet clothes by back door to go out on the line.
Type in list on blog, glancing at clock again.
Decide to remove all clocks from house.
Take call from the Trip Chieftain and realize that leaving time is getting REALLY close.
Pour another cup of coffee and run for the bathroom, quick, before I hear the baby wail.
Email itinerary to those who need to know.
Relax! This is going to be FUN! (Four kids, two moms, a Celebration, and then visits to a Kitchen Madonna and family.)
