Keep in mind this must happen or I will become so overly dramatic the world will undoubtedly end. So within the next 11 days we plan on
#1 Completely cleaning the downstairs apartment. Dirty yucky druggy people used to live down there. This includes:
removing all garbage - holy cow is there a lot of garbage.
vacuuming the floors - probably multiple times
shampooing the carpets - I'm interested to see the final color.
scrubbing the walls/baseboards/all surfaces - *whole body shudder*
patching holes
painting
clearing out the basement attachment of crap
pouring concrete slab
building and hanging back door
#2 Moving all of Debbie's things downstairs into newly cleaned and prettified home. This includes:
running phone and cable lines
boxing up and moving all dishes, food, bedroom and bathroom items, dressers, etc.
setting up her computer, tv, etc.
#3 Rearranging our new home. This includes:
moving me and Justin into Debbie's old room - bed, dressers
rearranging the kids' room - take bed out, put bed in, move bed around, shake a hokey pokey or something.
bring everything for Bailee out of storage and set it up in kids' room
put clothes into dressers and hanging in closets
move bookshelves and hutch to new locations in the house - not an easy task.
clear out back room so everything is accessible
buy dishes, silverware, etc. that we need.
put everything in it's proper place in the kitchen - includes dishes, silverware, food, etc.
#4 Because we think we're super human we're going to throw in paint entire upstairs.
#5 June 2nd @5pm - Attend Stephanie's bachelorette party. This puts a hold on house-to-home production.
#6 Get together with Samantha and take maternity photo's
#7 Afternoon of June 5th - Go to doctor's pre-op visit, take hospital tour, meet with anesthesiologist to ready for surgery and Bailee.
#8 June 10th - Attend Kallee's baby shower. Yay for babies!!!!
#9 June 11th - Go to hospital and have a newborn. Bring her home to a home and not just a place where our crap is.
And that about sums up my list of "how to stress yourself out to the point of breaking". A HUMONGOUS thank you to my Mom and sister, Samantha. They have been coming over to help clean the downstairs and thank you, thank you, thank you. 11 days people. This all must happen in 11 days ...or else.
Anyone want to come over and help? I don't have much but I'll make you a cake or brownies or something.
