My theory, and preference, is that I should never have enough to do to hit a list. My workload is, or should be, under control. I have a good memory, so making a list is a bit of a waste for me. I know where shit is at. The same applies to my personal life, if you're organised you don't need lists.
My current state of listing is irritating. I have lists within lists. I have three immigration lists and two personal lists related to our immigration application. I have lists of documents, lists of what money is coming in, lists of what needs to get done, lists of who I need to talk to, lists of money going out. Sublists to each thing I have to do to indicate whether there is a form to go with outgoing/incoming money on x date. I hate it.
My passport arrived today (how great is this nail colour).
It ticks a lot of boxes in a lot of places. It's on nearly all the lists and was causing me a lot of stress.
With this out of the way the list gets smaller in a lot of ways, and that gives me a bit of peace.
To do:
- complete two application forms with passport number
- sign one application form
- get certified copies of:
- drivers licence
- birth certificate
- marriage certificate
- divorce decree
- passport
- Finalise letters of support
- Complete document index and email to Americo
- Courier the folder of death to Americo
- Spend $3000 just for kicks
- Americo get medical
- Americo get police check
- Make Americo get certified copies of:
- drivers licence
- birth certificate
- passport
- Make Americo go through each page of the 200 page folder with me on Skype to make sure everything is perfect and signed where it's supposed to be signed.
- Send to the embassy
- wait
- wait
- wait
- wait
- wait
- spend $2000 on flights

See why I hate the list.
