Living by the lists, not cooking by the book

I was considering typing out an update of all my to do's, but quite frankly, I think that might give me a panic attack. Instead, I snapped a photo of the three primary lists I've been working from. In any case, it seemed more efficient.

Right now, I am all about the lists. I've written profusely about this compulsion of mine (listed about it, too), but I think it's a good thing because these lists keep me in line. They're a little dangerous, too, though, because they compile all my important tasks on one page, which I can then choose to forget about for an indefinite period of time. (That's what happened last week.) Now, with two weeks left, it is high time for hyper-listing, scheduling, and budgeting. I need shopping lists, deadlines, and not to burn through my whole budget before I leave.

At this point, I'm more worried about tasks I need to accomplish for other people, emails I need to send, last-minute advice to give. I've got two projects in the works at school, one winding down and one starting up, and I'm worried that if I don't get my act together, neither will come to fruition as I'd hoped. Having publicly shamed myself, though, I suspect things are about to change.

OH, also, most recently checked-off items include: TGV reservation, finish writing letters, and talk to the bank.
