I’ve been busy. Too busy for the blog. One day I’ll be really consistent with updating and keeping track of things.

And I’ll have pictures from James’ big birthday weekend tomorrow.

But right now - I want to talk about how insane it is to try to get ones house ready to put up for sale with two small kids.

The minute I have one room cleaned out and move to the next - the girls go to the cleaned room and destroy. And it’s not just pulling out a few things - it’s pulling out everything, putting more stuff on top and then kicking it all around. It’s crazy what these small precious little girls are capable of.

Today I cleaned from behind the oven  (holy nastiness!). I hung the curtain rod in our bedroom all by myself(!!). And I attempted to (finally) finish painting the girls bathroom. But realized, yet again, that I’m a really awful painter.

I have a list of all the things we need to do before listing the house and it’s pretty overwhelming.

PAINT:

• -finish girls bathroom
• master bedroom
• master bath
• living room
• bonus room
• office
• upstairs bathroom (?)

And then there’s all the getting rid of stuff. Like boxes of cards and just tons of random junk that I have no idea why we have. Some of it’s my husbands (like, alot of it since he’s a major pack rat). Hopefully this will help him get rid of tons of college books, notes, magazines, clothes from high school, etc.

And - if we decide to not sale our house - then everything will be painted and clean and pretty and I’ll just enjoy our cute little house a few more years!
