Finally- my New Year's resolution

I am finally going to make a New Year’s Resolution: stop procrastinating! Oh the irony that I waited until January 21 to make this resolution, but it has to be done cause I have SOOOOOOOO much to do and so little time!
Here is a taste of my “I am about to move to Africa to-do-list”:
• Get Charlie’s birth certificate
• Get Charlie’s passport
• Take an online “Perspectives” course (which usually takes 6 months, but cram it into 4 because I procrastinated)
• Pack/get rid of all of our stuff in our house


(note- this is not really our house, but what it feels like at the moment)

• Find somewhere to store the few things we can’t part with
• Figure out what to pack for all of us
• Work on Charlie’s baby book
• Prepare our house to rent out
• Plan Charlotte’s 1st birthday party



• Get plane tickets and visas
• Spend as much time as possible with friends and family
• Get immunizations for Charlotte and us too I guess
• Prepare emotionally and spiritually to leave everything I know and start a new life
• Find a home for our super dog



• Get physicals
• Set up finances and power of attorney for while we are gone
• Raise 40,000 more dollars



• See about taking a tropical medicine course
• And the list goes on and on and on…..
