Busy Bee

That's me! I have been busting my hump trying to begin the long process of getting crap out of the way so that my entire upstairs can have carpet put in. I clearly did not think this whole thing through. From about 8:30 until 1 I was in my bedroom moving furniture to sweep up and clean out any junk that has been dropped under never to see the light of day again. Plus scrubbing baseboards, cleaning out and boxing up all decorative items not attached to the wall. I have no idea what to do with all this crap, I guess take it all down stairs but I can't do that yet cause I don't even know when they are coming to install it. So anyhow I waste my whole day in my room and closet going through stuff (ended up with a bag of trash, bag of good will crap and one of recycling! yikes!) all to walk downstairs and realize that the downstairs looks like a tornado went through and the dishwasher guy is coming for take 2 tomorrow! So I start cleaning up that. Pick Mykenzie up from school walk into Kaylee's room for something and clean out her closet while I am there, found a bag of stuff for Chandra, bag for trash and another for Once Upon a Child/Goodwill. So I basically have my room done (except my scrap area,reason why to come) and Kaylee's room is about done. Tomorrow hopefully the dishwasher doesn't take to long so I can hit up the loft and Mykenzie's room. I really just want to get most of it done so I don't have to worry about it anymore. I at least have to get the rooms to appear clean cause the carpet man is coming to measure on Friday!

Now the reason my scrap stuff has to stay. Well 1. cause I want it to. I don't know how long this process is going to take and to tell me I can't do something makes me want it even more! 2. and more importantly I am working on a project for my dad for his birthday. His 50th is this month! He is not looking forward to it at all. Hopefully he will like my creation (and that my grandma sends me some pictures so I can finish it) I will post pictures when I am done, well if it turns out ok ;)

We have girl scout camp on Saturday. Kaylee is so bummed that she can't go. A couple more years. Should be fun, we get to do the horse program (shh don't tell Kaylee) so it will be different and a good time. Must remember to charge camera battery!!

September's calendar is filling up so fast! I love having things to do as long as they don't cause me stress. Thankfully most things are fun. Kaylee's cardiologist appointment is next Wednesday though so I am quite a nervous wreck about that one! Prayers and fingers crossed. I am off to shower, 9:30 PM and I haven't done that today. I am sure anyone who comes in contact with me will appreciate me taking the time.

You have been busy. Not sure if you remember or not but about a year Abby went through something similar and the cardiologist said all was good. Big prayers and hugs for you. I can totally related to your anxiety about this.
