Too Much Going On 🤯

A trip, a novel, a promotion-push. Wow!

Too many To Dos and too little time to do ‘em

We’re going to Europe on Tuesday (!) and there’s still so much to do.

So much to do before we can sit back, relax, drop our tray tables and cuddle a whiskey while binge watching… Every. Single. Movie.

My wife kept rattling off things we had to do.

So I created a shared To Do list.

Now she keeps adding things to it. It’s an endless game of Whack a Mole while the clock runs down. A productivity arms race.

The last time we travelled we went around the world and had a year to do it.

Now we’ve got three weeks and we’re bootstrapping our own Contiki.

Booking buses, trains, ferries and planes.

Writing a full user manual for our house and our children.

We’re going without the kids. Did I mention that?

There’s so much to do.

Yes, yes I know. It’s like a second honeymoon. But that means we need to make sure every little thing we do unconsciously morning, noon and night needs to be planned, documented, and pre-packed before take off.
