the countdown begins!!!

lists lists lists
i've got a list for things to purchase
i've got a list for things to do
i've got a list for what to pack......

i love lists....the simple ACT of creating a list is therapudic for me.
they make me 'feel' organized and in control. that doesn't mean I AM...it just makes me THINK i Am

so far on our list for today -> drop van off at mechanic to get her tummy checked, ->wait on hold for EVER to see if Target REALLY has the air mattress pump that the internet SAYS it has. (just hung up..NO would be that answer!!, but they have others...so no worry.)
->V has practice for two hours
->Hubby is on his three hour fast in prep. for his Chest CT, will pump himself full of advil in anticipation of a 45 minute pose in 'the big can'. we get results on thursday - we expect conversation on second line chemo at that time.
->we should hit up the used book store for our beach books. although ms. V is still fighting through the Iliad....
->I discovered 'DG' (dollar general) this weekend and picked up some secret goodies for the trip.
-> i work this evening (by the way i hit my thousand dollar mark on saturday - yeah me!)
->will review meal plans with Rose and firm up our food shopping lists
->begin washing all trip clothes and staging them in a laundry basket (no comments from the peanut gallery about 'leaving mine behind')!
->pay rent and other bills that come due while we are gone

oh boy...i feel better just typing this all up....too bad i'm not I dream of jeannie..i would just wiggle my nose right about now!!!

have a super duper day all of you!!!!

mrs. b,

i do list's a on daily basis. the key is to stay with the list and follow up on the list when delegating out. trust me i hate lists to be honest. but they are a way of life now and days...

love,
