Last Week's List

This last week before we depart has a full checklist of items, here are some:

• visit the bank to check on pin numbers for the debit card and then try them out at the local atm machine.
• use family's Amazon Prime membership to order the last minute things forgotten till now: plug adaptors for European electricity, new camera battery, and new camera sd card
• finish reading Mockingjay - that is David and he is almost done
• go to Once Upon a Child to buy spring-time rain jackets for the boys who had none
• finish the last bit of bookwork for homeschool
• figure out meals that will not leave leftovers
• make sure we understand how to get video off the video camera and onto the iPad
• laundry - it really is never done - and think about how to not leave dirty towels when we leave
• clean the house because I am NOT coming back to a dirty, stinky house - the kids have been forewarned that this will be a good clean.
• double check with sister-in-law about feeding the fish and watering the plants
• clear memory cards in the kids' cameras and continue to remind them that they can't all take multiple pictures of the same thing
• scan important documents and put them in Dropbox to have an electronic copy of reservations and other important papers
• double check rides to and from the airport

5 days to departure and some on the list is complete.  We'll be busy finishing the rest between now and Monday!
