So Much To Do, So Little Time

It recently hit me that I only have about 3.5 weeks left stateside before I head off....I'll be leaving Portland at the end of the month, spending a week in Spokane at my parents', and then heading to Guanajuato, Mexico for *hopefully* the last summer of my Masters program.  Then, it's back to Spokane on the 29th of July for 48 hours and I leave for Zambia on August 1.  Whew--I'm exhausted just thinking about all I have to do in the next few weeks. 

Plus, for some reason, I just can't seem to motivate myself to do anything.  Perhaps I'm dragging my feet because I'm afraid that it really means this is REAL.  So, in order to help me prioritize and hopefully light a fire under my ass, I've made a to do list of things that HAVE to get done.  Now.

-Find Renters for my House (thought this was accomplished, but it might not be)
-Finish My Thesis
-Finish My Thesis Presentation (Power Point)
-Finish My Year at Creston and Pack Up My Classroom
-Pack Up (Mexico and Zambia)
-Shipment to Zambia
-Move Out of my House
-Buy Ruby's Pet Carrier

I think I have to go throw up now.  I'm overwhelmed and under-motivated...not a good combo.
