what can i do?

I feel like I have a lot of little things to do that I really don't feel like getting started on........

What should I be planning 4 months out?

What little things?

Honestly, I felt like I didn't do much other than start to think about RD at 4 months

I started our MUST PLAY / DO NOT PLAY list already.

I also need to confirm our rehearsal date before I start planning the RD. Meeting with our priest on Saturday to confirm the date.

We also want to do a non-traditional RD and have our OOT meet us at our favorite place. The owner already said he would gladly have us for our 'RD' we just need to get him a number - we won't know numbers until we get RSVPs.
