I just couldn't seem to get my act together to prepare for this trip. I did manage to get my Health Insurance in plenty of time so that was a plus - the only plus. After that - I was useless. Everything was last minute.
A week before leaving "I fought the Jeep and the Jeep won". OK, so I dealt with insurance and estimates without a hitch, then on Sunday I wondered if maybe I needed an accident sticker from the police before crossing the border. Well, duh! Of course. Thank goodness I was able to get hold of Karen - otherwise he wouldn't take my report unless, as he put it, I wanted to report I was in a hit and run - thus explaining why I don't have the information about the other car.
Between Thursday and Sunday, I had an oil change, tire rotation, rugs cleaned, two trips to Fabricland, worked Friday, prepared 60 quilting kits, took Snoopy to the Vet, visited with Deb and Sally, had lunch with Donna at Saigon Bistro, spent a frustrating 45 minutes at the Police Station, washed my bedding (including a trip to the coin laundry for my quilt), washed my car inside and out, went to the bank, gassed up, took Snoopy to the kennel - and finally packed!
I'm exhausted. Now I need a holiday just to rest from the preparation.
Somehow it's 11:30 Sunday night I'm organized, packed and ready to load the car tomorrow. Two things on the agenda for the morning - call Telus for my roaming plan and get my tires torqued.
