busy, busy day(s)

Lately I've been feeling like I don't have enough hours in the day. Take today for example:
Woke up late (8:30 because none of us slept last night), had breakfast, took addy to the dog park, went to the JRC and filled out passport papers 3 times for 3 people (9! applications-- so frustrating!), went to the commissary, went to lunch with my friend, came home and made dinner (did 3 loads of laundry between this morning and now), K took a nap so I took an hour and worked on my bible study, the Mr came home and I finished dinner (which included a run to Vons because our carrots were bad.  Have you ever seen Hairy Carrots?  Did the words 'hairy carrots' make you think of the Cubs? because I couldn't help but think of harry carry as I was contemplating using said carrots.) after dinner I had a doctor appointment.  Got home at 8:45 and folded laundry. Now a mountain of dishes are staring at me. So, basically, I got laundry and passports done.  I think it feels like I didn't get much accomplished today because I have a monster to-do list staring at me and I feel like if I could just have just a few more hours everyday then it would shrink.  Tomorrow, I have small group, then K has a nap followed by her one year checkup with Dr. Park.  I'm hoping to get to the farmer's market afterwards if there's decent weather and she's not too crabby after her shots.  But if I do those 3 things then nothing gets done towards my Japan 'to-do'.


I need to figure out what we're taking with us.  I think we're only allowed 2,250 lbs and according to a bunch of websites they say that one room is about 1,000 lbs!  So that pretty much means one bedroom and the kitchen!  Kind of nervous.  But, at the end of the day, it's just stuff and it doesn't really matter.  I worry about making a mistake that will set us back financially, but I really need to just rely on who is really in charge.  I know God always provides and has always, always taken care of us and that is so comforting.  He hasn't just provided, but has abundantly blessed us.  So I'm going to rest in that knowledge.
