Life would be SO much easier if only my wife was more organized
July 20, 2007
Julie, I think, is still feeling fairly stressed about the myriad moving parts in our lives these days. As usual, she is way more on top of things than she realizes.
Below is an e-mail she sent out last night, which shows the degree to which she’s got hers and the kids’ lives schedule nailed down for the coming weeks:
Hi,
I wanted to make sure those impacted by our travels had the details since this seems to be coming together somewhat. So, file this away as needed. If you are along the travel route, I will see you soon and am much appreciative of accomodations and help. With my mover’s delivery date being unconfirmed, some of this is likely to change.
Thanks,
JulieMonday or Tuesday, July 30 or 31st

If only I put this much effort into, say organizing the kitchen measuring utensils, then maybe making Saturday morning pancakes would be easier.
