Why do I not learn?

[kageokami666]

So I fly out to Florida (for a week) in less then 24 hours and I have a bunch of stuff to get done between now and then.  I'll probably get the important stuff done but I'm still anxious since I would rather not be up the entire night making sure everything is together.


To do/Checklist

• finish up important tasks at work
• make sure paycheck is deposited so I have money for trip
• Print boarding passes
• acquire a large suit case
• do laundry for trip
• pack suit case
• be sure that I have packed essential toiletries (soap, tooth brushing supplies, hair brush & clips etc, proper bras for the shirts I pack - last year caused a fiasco because I forgot to pack strapless bras for certain shirts)
• make sure I pack all needed chargers (be sure to charge the devises I plan to bring for use on the plane)
• find and pack all X-mas gifts since X-mas trip did not happen
• do wood burn item that I mentioned to one of those to be in attendance this week
• finish trinket gifts - may have to strike this one if the stuff I need to do to finish it up is more involved then I think

Things I would like to have done before I go but are not essential/related to the trip

• have my room/closet cleaned up (a lot of my TFs need to find new homes on my bookshelves since I switched my room around)
• repaint nails - the color I used is black with green blue sparkles but the glitter was easier to see in the bottle so right now my nails are black unless you look really close and catch the light just right.  At the moment I would prefer a more interesting/outrageous color
• complete some of the half finished craft projects I have sitting around so I can put them/their supplies away (specifically the Decepticon purse that needs to be relined that has sat out for the last year waiting for me to finish it - all I need to do is sew the damn thing in and hope it fits right cause hell if I knew what I was doing, I guessed at how this stuff is done)
• pick apart my psyche and try to correct the behaviors that are not serving my benefit (like the compulsive collecting of little items (like candles, marbles, tea) adds up to be a big drain on my finances)

Well lots to do not much time to do it, best I try to use my time wisely and try not to get distracted.
