Thinking Ahead

We are planning on sending a container to Africa with all kinds of personal belongings and lots of items donated for the orphanage. The container is scheduled for shipment in early May. I am looking forward to sending my books and some personal items that I won't be able to fit in a suitcase when I leave in July.
Right now I am living with friends in a bedroom surrounded by all that I own in plastic containers I bought at Target. I put everything in these containers so we could use them for storage in Africa.

I think this weekend I am going to do some shopping for supplies that I'll want to have with me in Africa. I want to start the process of dividing up all that I own into groups that are Africa bound and get them ready to go in the container.
I have a goal. By the end of this weekend I want to have three plastic containers filled and ready to be shipped. I want to cross off at least 10 items from my list of supplies and have them packed to go.
I like making lists and setting goals. I like thinking ahead and getting things done before the due date.
