Making Lists

We have 9 days to go and we've begun compiling our lists.  I have assembled 4 lists.  Did I forget anything?

1. Things I need to do to have Miles ready to leave for an entire week. (We've never both been gone that long.)
2. Tools to pack (Well actually, Chris is in charge of the packing and creating of this list.)
3. Clothing to Pack (This is my job, so end up with enough socks and undies :)
4.  Menu items for cross county meals on the road (We'll leave venison off of this one since we don't want the wolves to jump under the car and steal that meal again.)  

List One:

  • Temporary POA for grandparents in case of an emergency.
  • General Daily Schedule
  • List of potential babysitters and their numbers.  
  • List of friends that could help out with anything
  • New set of books from the library to enjoy at bedtime
  • Leave zoo membership card and the like for potential fun.
  • Food in Dog's hopper (Yes, our dog is more like a cat than a dog. She eats on her own schedule, only wants attention on her own schedule, and creates fur balls in the corners of my rooms.) 
List two:
  • First Aid Kit/ make sure it's restocked
  • Metric Sockets/Wrench/ allens
  • Pliers
  • Electric kit
  • Jumper cables (The good set.)
  • Duct Tape 
  • Electrical Tape
  • JB Weld
  • Metric assorted bolts
  • Battery/ charged (Oddly we already have one of these lying around, so we thought we'd take it.)
  • Silicone
  • Fix-a-flat
  • Air Tank
  • Tire Gauge
  • Jack stand
  • Fuses
  • Paper clip
  • OBD2 reader
  • Fluids
  • Breaker bar
  • Hammer
  • Gas can
  • Assorted hoses
  • 18 GA wire
  • Garbage Bags
List 3:
  • Clint Eastwood Costume for day 2 
  • Trivia about the "man with no name" series 
  • Shirts
  • Pants
  • Socks
  • Undies
  • Slip on Shoes
  • Toiletries
  • Camera
  • Computer
  • MP3 player 
  • Wallet
  • Extra car key
  • My book club's book if they decide on a title before we leave.
List 4: 
  • pasta salad
  • carrots, celery, broccoli
  • wraps
  • lunch meat
  • cheese
  • lettuce or spinach salad
  • breakfast bars
  • Trail mix
  • drinks
 I feel like we're forgetting something very important, but I can't for the life of me think of what it could be.  I hope it all fits...
