- cleaned the inside of the car, vacuumed and Febreez'd it, organized everything, even organized the maps.
- the trip maps and other travel aides are tucked in the door pocket for easy access.
- filled the gas tank
- had the car serviced, oil changed, lubed, tires checked.
- ordered and picked up prescriptions for myself and the dogs.
- trimmed the dogs and took them to the vet for nail clipping and ear cleaning, having Ali cleared to travel following his recent surgery.
- packed clothes.
- packed linens except the specific ones I'm using.
- forwarded mail.
- changed address on magazine subscriptions.
- packed dogs food, beds and toys.
- arranged for the house to be thoroughly cleaned after I leave.
- arranged for several guys to help me pack the trailer on Thursday.
- changed/stopped utilities and services.
- had dinner with most of my list and arranged to get together with others on my return (when I come back to close on the house and/or move furniture).
- got the sturage unit packed, packed, packed.
- reserved UHaul trailer.
- have almost everything packed and ready to go.
- at least a dozen other things that escape my mind at this tired moment.
What I haven't done:
- bathe the dogs so I can stand being in the car with them for several days.
- finish two small improvement tasks.
- run several last minute errands.
- finish packing. (keep in mind that I'll probably be wrapping the last item as I pull out of the driveway!!!)
I think I'll make it. Possibly even with my brain still attached to the brain stem. Stay tuned!
Wow..I'm stressed out just by reading your list! :)
