Crunch time, and I don't mean my abs.

I am a good planner. Ask anyone I know. I can plan things, organize events, coordinate efforts. Yet, it seems that in my motherhood stage, I've lost some ability to make things come together! We are leaving for Disneyland on Thursday. I have three days to get the following done (remember, I still have two small children to keep happy and a husband to placate). I have three shows that need closed, three consultants to sign-up, one homeshow to do (two hours away), 18 tomato plants to plant, loads of seeds to sew into my garden, at least 6 loads of laundry to do, a dvd player to return, a dvd player to pick up, friends for dinner, hair to dye and the list goes on...
Speaking of lists, I have no idea where to start in what to bring to Disneyland.
It's wonderful to be busy again and all the things I have listed above are good things (minus the hair to dye.... damn gray hair!)
Changing the subject.... we spent the day in SG at my Brothers house playing in the pool. I have a loverly sunburn and the kids both have rashes from their life jackets! We had a grand old time. I love Summer and all the fun we have when the sun is shining! Jade and Ayden did really good in the pool. Both of them jump off the side and into the water. Jade attempted this once without her lifejacket, luckily Cousin M noticed Jadie flailing in the water and ran to her dad. Blair is a great life guard. Into the water, clothes and all. Jade was fine, "I can't swim" was her comment on the whole ordeal, my response was "no kidding?"
I think we took a few years off Grandma and Blairs lives. Bless their hearts.
