Mom Talk

Juggling my many hats can be a challenge at times.  This week, my daughter and I are travelling for our yearly visit to my favorite aunt’s house.  While this trip is exciting for both of us, the sheer volume of stuff I need to get done before leaving is astonishing.  For the last several days, every time I sit still for five minutes, my mind starts to whirl with the list I have yet to put down on paper.  Fill the cat’s food and change his litter pan, finish up last minute laundry so my daughter’s dance stuff is clean for next week, work ahead for my online school classes, pack. . . .and the list goes on!  If I had started the week off by making a list, I would have saved a shred of my sanity but now here I am, a day before I leave, just now writing it down.  I guess better late than never.  To top it all off, I came down with an awful cold a few days ago and today I have PMS!  Posting this blog is one thing I can now mark off my list. :)  Do you guys have any tips for preparing to leave town?  Any nuggets of wisdom you’d like to share?  Leave a comment!
