My packing checklist...

I'm a checklist person. A good checklist helps keep me calm, organized and focused. Without a checklist I feel overwhelmed and anxious. For me, there is something magical about putting a check in the box, or crossing an item off the list. It gives me a goal--a sense of accomplishment. A tangible record of my productivity. Ultimately, a checklist equals a productive Dana, and no checklist equals well, no guarantee.

When I need to pack, I make a thorough list. An inventory of sorts. After that, it's just a matter of retrieving the items and playing Tetris with my suitcase. Easy.

See the toes in the picture? That's me...Standing over the case...Checking the list.

Deoderant? Check!
Wipes? Check!

Katelyn? Double check!!

Okay team, good work! Lets go!!

Big Bows and Bangs...Oh My!

Today was crazy hair day at school. Here's what we came up with. I rate this hair style as...kind of crazy. Like a "3 out of 5 stars"-type of crazy. I love it!!

Here is a picture Kate drew of us. We have long, dangly earrings on our ears, and that is Jesus up in the sky. I think it's cute.

Poem for Littleman (it doesn't rhyme)

He fell asleep well over an hour ago, 
but my anxiety levels are still high. 
Littleman kept me on my toes today!
More than usual (...if there is such a thing).
