Today, I realllllly need to get some stuff done, My house is relatively clean so I can focus on the list hopefully, lol...The sewing I will do as I can, I'm waiting for fabric for some of the trades, but otherwise...
I need to:
Wash SheetsDONE
Put away laundry
Take pictures of all these clothes I could sell
Take a bunch of stuff to Goodwill, throw out the other stuff that isn't worth taking
Move around a bedroom and a sewing room (BIG job) DONE
Iron four outfits
Sew the following:
Two trades
Dress for Olivia
Present for a mama
Purse for me
Cloth doll diaper set to selll and hopefully get some moola
Okay...Update LOL...it's 11:48, that's one and a half hours, I'm taking a lunch break....
Here's what I have accomplished..
the sheets are done
Corbin's bed and dresser are out of the little room, toys are sorted through and a whole garbage bag full of junk in the trash, the sewing table is now in the little room, and I am halfway done with the room swap...it's going to be sooooooooooo nice to have a sewing room again YAY!!! LOL
Okay, 2:30 update :D
I am *almost done* with the bedroom/sewing room swap, I have to take pics when I'm done because it's so hysterical to see what we have going on here. ROFL....I have a small 3 bedrooms (well, 2 1/2 really)...in the biggest room (which will eventually be the kid's to share since the 1/2 sized room isn't big enough for a bedroom really...but it sure is going to be a FINE sewing room LOL)...anyhow, in the biggest room I have arranged EVERYTHING all around an now in there, there is: (omg LOL)
a king sized bed
two night stands
floor lamp
TWO TODDLER BEDS
TWO DRESSERS
the kids' toy baskets
LOLOL...All shoved in one room....but it's okay...when I get my bedroom/bathroom remodeled then the king bed and night stands will be gone. But, holy moly, that's a TON of stuff to have in one room...it's a good thing we are a co-sleeping family...lol. (The kids end up in our bed every night anyhow, so this isn't that different, plus I get a sewing room out of the deal LOL) That's my update, now I Have to see if I can get it all finished and cleaned up before Nick gets home from work :p OTOH, I don't know that I'll get everything else done, I guess it'll be an ongoing list LOL

Unfortunately I have been pretty sick for the past few days, and nothing has gotten done, with the exception of the dishwasher being loaded and unloaded a few times by my dh.
I do feel somewhat better today, so I will attempt to get a few things done, inbetween naps for me, since I do have to work tonight.
I really need to:
Do 3 laundry loads
fold clean laundry and put away
cut out 1 order
clean kitchen counters off
re-sort thru a few fabric bins, and condense, and add more fabrics to them, to clear off my cutting table
Start cutting out TSIS outfit
Hopefully I can make a dent in this.

I've been busy all day :)
We cleaned 7 yo dd's room, moved furniture, I had to scrape/sand/prime one of her windowsills that had flaky paint that she kept chipping at. We cleaned out the 3 "under the eaves cubbies" in her room. Scrubbed a bunch of paint and crayon marks !GRRRR! off the doors (3 yo sis keeps playing Picasso in there). I built her a "desk" from an old coffee table & a bookshelf, it's in the yard waiting for the paint to dry. I also scrubbed down the easel, moved out her huge rug and replaced it with a smaller, cuter one, changed her sheets & started on a faux chenille pillow for her bed. The top's done, I just need to sew the rest of the pillow and finish her rag quilt I started last summer :eek: I told her I'd try to have it done by bedtime, I need about an hour. Oh, I fixed her lamp and managed to super glue 2 of my fingers together too :lol:
Aside from all that work upstairs, I need to fold 2 loads of laundry wash a couple more and run the dishwasher. Maybe someone else will vacuum the living & dining rooms for me...

good thing you posted this because i hadn't even thought of the fact that we have someone coming over for a playdate tomorrow till it made me start thinking... don't need the place to be spic and span, just nothing embarrassing left out. lol
so, before swimming:
-- 1 or 2 loads of laundry
-- dishes, wipe down stove, etc
-- sweep kitchen
-- straighten sewing table a little, finish tracing a pattern so i can put it away
take milo swimming
then after swimming:
-- straighten living room
-- vacuum
-- sweep deck
and while milo's in the bath later, i'll do a quick wiping up of the bathroom.
i just won't open the bedroom doors tomorrow. lol
hopefully i will be done with it all so i can work on some knit longies i made for a trade. they just have to be sewn up and legs embroidered on the sheep. :)

What a loaded question...here is my life:
THIS EVENING: Pack like a mad woman and get the house prepped as if I was ready to move tomorrow. Did I mention it is already 8:30pm and there is still so much to do? Plus, it is daunting that both my girls have some icky nasaly cough thing and if I overwork myself, I am bound to get it too. ICK. I have to work hard because THURS/FRI is a wash, and I won't have time.
THURSDAY: We close on our 'new' house at 11:00pm CST. All I can say about that is *YIPPEE!!!!* -- After that, maybe out to lunch with DH. After that, I need to go down to the Public Works dept and shell out $105 to get my water turned on. Then, the girls and I will swing by our 'new' house and drop off a bunch a stuff I loaded the car with, including my grandma's antique treadle sewing machine. (see, I made it sewing related!). Then we drive 2.5 hours back 'home' to clean and get ready for Friday.....
FRIDAY: We JW's have conventions every year. Like spiritual gasoline so-to-speak, lots of instruction, plus getting to see old friends, and my girls favourite: lunch. We pack a picnic. The convention is 3 days, but we are hitting only one this week and hitting someone elses next week. It is from 9:30am-5:05pm and we have to drive 2.5 hours one way to get there. And if you can believe it, my girls sit through the whole thing and are the best girls in the whole wide world. :heart: Most people spend the weekend at a hotel, but my husband is Catholic and so he hates when we leave so we drive back and forth (which stinks). So that is Friday...super, but long.
SATURDAY: MOVING DAY!!!! :monkeydan Need I say more? :p

well, I got my bags packed today and everything by the door.. went and bought crystals, since Lindsey was convinced I needed to take some to the hospital... spent the day taking care of Joshie who has a high fever, thanks to teething (he insists the only thing that hurts is his teeth that just broke through)...
it's 2 am, and I'd love to be able to figure out how the heck to fall asleep.
That, OR how to get this little girl to vacate the premises. (it's sad when you want to give birth simply so you can fall asleep - LOL)

:eyes: I figured out the falling asleep thing.. just in time for Lindsey to have a nightmare. By the time that was over and done with, I got in the bathtub, and Josh woke up screaming.. at 3:30, 5:30, 7:15 and 9 before finally getting up for the day at 11. Poor kid is miserable, and now his throat is raw. *sigh*
I think I need something WAY more powerful than calgon to take me away. :eyes:
