The To-Do List
After Carole left, I decided to hunker down and cross some things off my to-do list. Obviously, my biggest stress is where I'm going to stay for the month of July, but since I have no control over what happens or when I get the information, I've decided to throw myself into solving all the smaller issues. For example, in the last two days I bought a flight from Taipei to
Kuala Lumpur, one from
Kuala Lumpur to Perth, applied for an Australian visa, gotten a chest X-ray for tuberculosis and bought a travel guide for Vietnam and Angkor Wat. Whew! On top of that I finished all my grading and planning, sent off my last
penpal package and even remembered to send a package to Jill! It's amazing how much better I feel after crossing things off my to-do list and getting a few full night's sleep.
