The "Out the Door" Countdown
- 10 minutes — "Ten minutes. Shoes are the last step."
- 5 minutes — "Five. What's left on your list?"
- 2 minutes — "Two. Coat on or coat in the car — you pick."
- 1 minute — Stop talking. Stand by the door. Point.
- Go — "We're walking now." Say it once and move.
The countdown replaces you asking eleven times.
