Will accept donations...

So I've been looking at my list. The list knows at Things to do before Ethiopia.
So far I've done good. I've got my vaccinations, I have my visa. I've established that I don't actually need to buy a mosquito net, because there's one in my house there, along with practical household items. I've taken care of my malaria prevention and purchased 96 o.b. tampons, in assorted varieties.

But to be honest, hamstering away on short notice isn't a cost-free affair. I'm still short on hair dye and sunscreen and shampoo and other assorted toiletries. More tampons might not be a bad idea. Another Canasten might be a good idea and maybe I should stock up on regular painkillers too.

A tool of some sort, as also on the list. And Swiss army knife. Or better yet a Leatherman. I also think stocking up on batteries could be a good idea. Or better yet, rechargeable batteries, or maybe one of those solar charger pad things.

Anyway, I'd basically accept any and all of these things as donations at this point. Writing lists of things to get keeps me occupied while I'm waiting for my travel date.
