Making my lists...

Well, our entire household has been packed up and is on a truck heading to Delaware.

I love lists... I think it has something to do with my personality (I am a virgo and can be JUST a little bit of a perfectionist). Lists keep me sane. Does anyone else make lists? I make shopping lists, to do lists, to remember lists, to call lists, for my honey to do lists, and lists of my lists!


So, here is my list of big things to complete in the next few days...

1. Connect the Blue-Ox Tow Bar to the RV.

2. Have Tow-Plate installed on car, so it can be towed.

2. Put car top carrier together and put on top of car. - As mentioned in items 1 and 2, this trip we are pulling the car behind the motorhome. I thought I would take advantage of the extra space and get a carrier. Right now the plan is storage for heavier clothes, extra home-school supplies, and things not being used on a daily basis.

3. Sort things in house that need to go IN the car top carrier. - We have WAY too much stuff to go in the motorhome. Time to sort and do another organizing purge.

4. Replace broken windshield on car. - Although I am sure it will get broken again being towed behind the RV, I need to replace it. I have had chips on my windshield for over a year now. I promised myself I would replace the windshield as soon as those chips (that turned into cracks) met in the middle... and they have. It's time.

5. Mount Bicycle rack to the car. - Yes, the bikes are coming with us.

6. Mount footlocker/storage box to the bumper - With two kids, a place is needed to store things like baseballs, balls, outside toys, etc... We are trying to utilize as much storage outside the RV as possible.

7. Renew registrations for both car and motorhome.

8. Get oil change on motorhome.

9. Replace windshield wipers on motorhome.


There is a lot more to do with the house and inside the motorhome, but these are the major things that need to get done before we head out on the road!

I am running out of time!

There is so much to do... and so little time to do it in. I find that I am so overwhelmed I can't get anything done.

Do you ever have moments like this?

I walked into the living room and saw how much needed to be done. I stood there for about 10 minutes just looking at everything. I honestly didn't know where to begin... so I didn't! I just walked out and went to do something else. I have to begin somewhere but I am so overloaded I can't even process what needs to be done.

The biggest problem??? Whenever we are getting ready to move, everything in the house now belongs to ME and only ME. Everything in the house has now become MY responsibility. There are 3 other members in this family... how can everything in the house be mine???

Well, I had better start sorting MY toys and MY military papers and get off the computer!
HELP!!
