The Storm Before The Calm

Photobucket

Ha - the title really says it all. Obviously in today's fast paced time poor culture we have all become experts at multi tasking, we have lists, we have multiple lists based on subject, we have reminders on iphones, pop-ups from outlook and nothing becomes more important than striking a line through a task ....DONE! Oh the satisfaction.

Going on holidays only seems to exacerbate this craziness. Not only do you have your normal stuff but have to cram everything you should be doing over the next 5 - 6 weeks into your last few days at home. 

Its silly things that you need to think of that just blow you away when you look back ...

Sticky notes on your bin - DO NOT USE. NO RECYCLING THIS WEEK!

Sticky notes on random doors - MAKE SURE YOU DOUBLE LOCK THIS BEFORE YOU LEAVE!

Sticky notes on your front door (you ignore) - TALK TO YOUR NEIGHBOUR ABOUT THE MAIL

"How To" guides are posted on your security system

The truly worst .... Work Handover Notes. Oh the pain of handing over your perfectly organised work to someone you just know is going to mess it up. (picture me shaking my head in frustration)

So yes, these last .... 5 DAYS, 4 HOURS, 36 MINUTES AND 52 SECONDS are a special type of crazy you just have to get through so you can fully appreciate the amazingness that will come the minute you pass through airport security.
