Packing list for writing retreat weekend: laptop and power cord, comfy sweats, toothbrush and paste, research novels (which include _The Godfather_ and _Matilda_), tea and sweetener and milk, cold medicine, cough drops, Synthroid, crochet afghan, needlepoint ornaments. Need to come up with something for breakfast that I can easily make there, also some snacks, and I think we're good. Thanks, Kevin. Children, be good.
