When am I supposed to get stuff done?

I feel like today is the only day I’ll be able to run errands and really get stuff done before my trip.

Tonight, I have a hair client coming over for highlights. Tomorrow, a hair client for a color makeover. Friday morning I’m working at the salon and Friday night I’m at Walgreens. Saturday I’m at the salon all day, Sunday morning I have a client for highlights, Sunday night at Walgreens, Monday night at Walgreens, and Tuesday all day at the Salon. I leave for London on Wednesday evening.

So, as you can clearly see, free time for planning my itinerary (which I probably should have done right after I booked my airfare, but I’m quite the last-minute maven) is non-existent. Last night, I got myself so worked up over all that needs to be done before I leave that I almost gave myself a panic attack. I made myself an itemized list of things I have to buy/get done.

I’m relieved to see that I’m almost halfway done with my list, and I have my best friend by my side today to maintain my sanity (which she did quite well when I found my debit card missing this morning). Even so, I’m still feeling anxious and hard-pressed for time. Maybe it’s the sheer amount of work I’ll be doing in the next week before my trip, maybe it’s the realization that in only a week I’ll be in another country, across the ocean. Whatever it is, I don’t think I’ll actually be able to relax until I’m well into my trip. Here’s hoping anxiety doesn’t get the best of me before then!
