Read! REad and REad some more!
I also am a writer although not published yet, so I try to take this time to write.
I also am moving back to South Dakota so this time around I am also trying to pack before little Natalie comes home.
something I found that was a wonderful stress breaker was to declutter my home. Yea I know not something one jumps up and down to do, but it is time consuming and it cleans up the home for more fun things like baby things. Also if you live in town have a rummage sale. That way the stress is taken off of the adoption, because your so busy gathering items, getting them out for sale...plus the big bonus, money to shop for baby with.
It has been fun reading the other ideas.
Great thread by the way!
