The Drill Seems to Leave More Holes Each Time! - Saturday, 1 March

The get-ready drill has been repeated many times.  Nevertheless, despite giving myself more time than ever, I still am reliably over-rushed in the last 15 minutes before I have to depart for the airport, and ultimately forget a thing or two.  It seems to be a different issue each time, so perhaps I'm just overly creative when it comes to forgetting!  🤣 It certainly can't be old age, can it?!?

Today, about 15 minutes before my Lyft arrived, I remembered that I had forgotten to do a final update to the program layout for a March 16 concert and send it to the printer.  I had written myself a reminder and everything.  A bit of frantic editing, PDF-ing, instruction-writing, and emailing ensued.  Sheesh.

Then just before the plane's departure I discovered that I forgot to throw my earbuds and a pouch of equipment charging cables in my carryon.  EEK!  I can manage without the earbuds, and most-common USB combo cables for mobiles, tablets, portable power supplies, etc. must surely be available everywhere, right?!?  We'll see!  [Update: they had them at the terrific HEMA homewares store a couple blocks away.  Whew!]
