We're still in shock from our move... My goals are just to finish unpacking and find places for everything. We had a built in bookshelf at our old place, so I have a huge amount of books that are displaced.
Main goals:
*get kitchen organized, and cabinets sorted. I have to pare down, so I need to get rid of some stuff. I have a donation box started.
*Sort boxes and store things we don't urgently need in the garage for now.
*Too many toys, gotta give away some.
* still need window coverings for two rooms, plus keep an eye out for better stuff to replace what we're making do with on some of the other windows.

My oldest daughter and her fiancee are planning to come visit for several days this week, (spring break) It's really bad timing for me, but what can I do? They've already been here twice while we were moving in, and I really don't have time (or money) to entertain right now. I've promised myself I'm not going to stress over it I'm hoping they find something more exciting to do...

Sure, but I must warn you, we have lived here almost 6 years. lol. I've just recently asked about the shelves though. We're never in a hurry to get things done. lol

We are in the middle of moving, but I hope to:

Get rid of the big ole' pile in my basement

finish packing my sewing room

That's it for me, as that's all I have energy for.

**MICHELLE I love your dress in your sig! Where did you get it? I love the color combination.

Some of these are already done as of today, Mon, and Sun (**).

*Remove all sod from garden.

*Weed Dad's garden

*Take ivy off trees

*Build Cloche, and wood box

*Plant herbs in Cloche

*Mow lawns

**Remove blackberries from rasberry patch

**Cut bushes back, all of them. (there are about 40)

**Plant onions

**Plan gardens

**Grocery shopping

*Meal planning

Boy I am a busy bee... really, I have done a TON of this already this week. I am hauling stuff all the time, cutting bushes back for hours a day, and digging sod when ever I am in the mood. This is the first I have sat down since 1:30 when we got home from the Children's Museam with Christy and Ainsley this morning. And I got home from grocery shopping at Trader Joe's at 8 pm last night.

Love Val

*prepare sheets, oils, creams, etc for clinic
*finish up a box to send to my friend (outgrown clothes etc)
