It's amazing how long a Honey-Do list can get when you're away for 3 weeks. While I'm away, I get plenty of reminders of what needs to get done when I get home. In addition, I have my own to-do list to boot. So these whirlwind weekends that I'm home for just 4 days tend to be consumed in cleaning, home maintenance and running errands.
This weekend I get to bolt baby gates to the walls, shop for a new car seat for RJ, clean toilets, get a haircut, return/renew books at the library, go through 3 weeks of mail, pay bills, deposit checks, pickup water softener salt, take Tana to the vet, send in my expense reports, buy Beth a birthday gift, shop for cheap things for my Dublin apartment, do laundry, install cabinet cabinet/drawer guards, pack for my flight back to Ireland, and find the time somewhere in there to spend with Beth and RJ.
Luckily, my biological clock is still messed up so I can start working on these things at 4am when nobody else is awake.
To top it off, I have project deliverables due on Tuesday when I land back in Dublin. I'm not sure when those are going to get done, because they lose priority when I'm back in the US.
