Confessions of a Procrastinating Procrastinator
The kids and I are headed off to Newport tomorrow afternoon. I am not packed. I had all day to pack and I didn't do it. I did the laundry. I folded the laundry. I did not put the laundry away. That is the world's most God-awful chore -- next to emptying the dishwasher. Well, not so much emptying the dishwasher, but putting everything in it away. See a pattern here?
Perhaps if I pull the clothes from all the laundry baskets there will be fewer laundry baskets to empty. I hope I don't forget anything. I would be in serious trouble. You see nothing is replaceable. There certainly aren't any stores in Newport. None at all. Not one whatsoever.
So I absolutely have to remember:
Zyrtec
Singulair
Pulmicort and Albuterol for the Nebulizer
Nebulizer
(We have toothbrushes, toothpastes, shampoos, sunscreens, etc there)
1 dress for Becca
1 bathing suit
1 skirt and 1 top
1 pair of pants
3 shirts
shoes.... (undecided)
underwear
head band/barrettes/pony tail holder
detangler
hair brush
pink blankey
Doll and animal (TBD which ones)
Nightgown
4 shirts and 4 shorts for Alexander
swim suit
Pull-Ups for night time
underwear
sneakers
Dalmatian and Blue
Blankie
4 shirts and 4 shorts for Christopher
PJs
Corduroy
toys/games to leave there (ie get them out of this house!!!)
Me:
2 shirts
1 shorts
1 white pants
1 white tank
underwear
PJs
hand lotion
face cream
shoes -- flip flops
Camera
back up battery for camera
cell phone and charger
Nintendo and charger
phone numbers of the girls I am meeting at the zoo on Wednesday
book
Stroller! (Jogger?!)
As I make my list of things to be sure not to forget you can betcha that I will. And I just know I am forgetting something...
I could start packing now but nah... But why not put off what I can do today until tomorrow!
And if any of you (Marie!!!) like lists as much as I do and make lists for your lists you should definitely check out this blog by List Mama. I stumbled across it the other day and I have added it to my favorites!
