Today was my last day of classes for the semester.

Tomorrow is day one of the two-day reading period. Then I have a final on Thursday, another on Monday, and two things to hand in on Tuesday and Wednesday.

This sounds so doable and simple! It just doesn't feel doable or simple. It might be, maybe, but it doesn't feel like it will ever be.

In order to cope with stress, I make little lists. Sometimes publicly! :)

To-do list for tomorrow:

put together presentation
put first paper up to print - pack janet's book
work on painting
work on deep history paper
begin the Endless studying for the final on the Holocaust
order things for Christmas/ make the rest of my shopping list
talk to Aimee at the bookstore or at least make a real note to do so
do dishes
call in prescription refill
go to the co-op and to CVS pick up prescription when ryan gets home
eat chocolate or ice cream or something.

This list can be slightly modified and applied to most days this week and continuing into next until everything is handed in. Yippee!
