Go to the bank for cash?? I always have to stop in because I want certain denominations... esp lots of $1's

I usually forget and just go to the casino and get the money out of the ATM, my ATM card does not charge a fee, so no problem there, but when I am out getting all my stuff done, I could stop by the bank. Thanks for the reminder....and I mean it too. That was a very good tip

No problem . I like to have lots of 1's and 5's for tipping (room service, porters). I have a list on my computer I print out and check things off... I can't remember all the errands and such but I remember that one. I also do a mail hold - do you do that?

I have put the mail on hold, call my alarm company, have my son house sitting, plants with the neighbor, called credit card companies, got the passports out of the safe deposit box, printed cruise paper work, got prescriptions filled, kindle is loaded with books.

Way to go! You can probably skip this one on my list "Turn off AC"...

You have to call your credit cards? Mine has a process online to notify them of travel.

Are you in charge of all the vacay prep? My husband has it easy too...

My heat/ac is programmed, so we program it to turn on and off at different times depending on when we are at home, but with my son there, he will change fit I am sure...

I never thought to look on line to see if I could do it fro the web, I have always just called.

Yes, I do all the prep, DH just has to show up.. Ha ha.. We spoil them huh?

We sure do. I even have to help him pack his clothes (AFTER I pack ALL mine and pack all communal things)... sheesh!!

Oh one more thing I do - make sure to pay all bills. I have the due dates for all of them written in a file so I make sure any I have in hand are paid and any I don't have but will be due when or soon after my trip are paid up too!

I have on my list to check my bills, I can say that overall most of mine are auto pay, but another good tip... I plan on handling that tomorrow.

Not sure i mentioned this before but we are doing a re-if on the house, and we close tomorrow. Ugh huh so I have to do all of that prior to leaving on vacations. So I think I have to continue to pay the bills on the old mortgage and the new bills, so hopefully I will not miss anything.

Oh man - that does sound stressful - but I am sure it will go fine!

I hope so... But I would rather over pay and get it back later than to miss something. I know I will get it back eventually...

You are super-organized!

[dgbg100106]

I promise there are times that I do not feel organized....

Today has been a very stressful day for work. I am at home today, but it seemed to dawn on everyone that I was gone after today, so everyone need me to review this and comment on that, QA this and on and on and on....

I am leaving right now to go my pre cruise massage. I will feel better in moments!

[dgbg100106]

Well this morning I took an hour to go through all my shorts and capri's... I must say it sure was nice to toss a dozen or so... But, I had a whole section of the next size down, even with tags still on, so I can safely say that I have plenty of clothes to wear on the cruise.

Now, I have not had a bathing suit on this body in years... I still dont think I am there...
