Today I achieved many things:
- Washing. Three loads. All dry and either put away or put into 'take to England' pile.
- Dusted every flat surface in the house.
- Vacuumed every floor.
- Cleaned kitchen.
- Excavated kitchen island and it is huuuuge when not covered in paperwork.
- Washed kitchen floors.
- Talked to parents.
- Did not go crazy.
Things I did not do:
- Cleaned bathroom (to be done on Monday evening).
- Cleaned out cats' litter tray (to be done on Tuesday after taking them to cat kennel).
See? See? I'm actually getting organised.
My list for tomorrow is as follows:
- Pack. Not just pile things vaguely and make lists, but pack to the point where I only need to sling PJs and a book into my carry-on case on Tuesday. That kind of packing.
- Transfer BSG to DVD for Father (may start that tonight).
- Burn DVDs of other stuff for Father.
Unless tomorrow is cruel and weird, I'm thinking that this is actually achievable.
historyterry - I may only be on for a chat for a short time rather than a long chat if the packing is taking longer than estimated.
There was a moment this afternoon where I looked out of the window and saw snow racing by. I panicked, then remembered that I now have plough guy ready to go and stopped panicking. Two minutes later it stopped. I guess that was the flurry for today? So far, Tuesday still looks snow-free (good wishes for continued snow-free-ness appreciated) so my drive to the airport should be fine and my plane will take off. Thursday looks like a bitch, but I don't care! I won't be here! And plough guy will clear my drive!
Most importantly, I won't be here!
I think that I really need this trip. Seriously.
