To do lists- Christmas week

[amaranth]

Anyone else need to organize their massive amounts of things to accomplish in the coming days? I predict a bunch of late nights at my house.

Pre Christmas:
-Finish laundry including putting away (about four loads).
-Pack for visiting parents.
-Buy family portrait outfit (ugh).
-Finish baking cookies (cranberry sugar and roll out sugar still to go).
-Wrap all gifts.
-Buy my dad's gift card.
-Finish sewing H's and M's stockings.
-Dispose of all trash and boxes.

Between Christmas and NYE:
-Finish putting together M's big boy room.
-Scrub floor.
-Re-hang fallen curtain.
-Install new blinds.

You have a lot of things!

For me, it's just:
-Vacuum
-Laundry...lots of laundry
-Clean bathrooms
-Grocery shopping, a few errands
-Regular amount of cooking (my mom is cooking for Christmas)
-Nag H to get some things done lol

I already gave H, my sister, the ILs, and my parents their gifts, and I'm not doing much decorating or Christmas prep beyond that.

I still have lots to do.
- lots of housework
- bake cupcakes
- still need to wrap presents
- still need to finish Christmas shopping

It looks like a short list but I still have lots to do and no time to do it.

That's basically my list, I just itemized more. I hope you get energy and time

-I need to make 2-3 more batches of cookies.

-wrap my parents gift. (It's large so it's harder to wrap.)

-lots of housework

-figure out what side I'm bringing for Christmas Eve

We are not hosting anyone at all this year so the cleaning maybe able to wait until after Christmas.

* just wrapped a crap ton of gifts. It took me most of the afternoon.
* have more gifts on the way, I know at least one won't make it in time, boo.
* need to figure out gifts for daycare staff.
* still have a couple gifts to buy, nothing like waiting till last minute.
* need to pack for everyone.
* need to go to Gander Mountain and return something.
* need to figure out how to put us, the baby, the dogs, our bags, his exersaucer (actually belongs to my mom; we're bringing it back to her house and she's getting him a fancy new one to keep at our house), and the gifts... all in one vehicle.

Dear lord I have to clean.
less than a week ago my house could have passed a white glove inspection. (I did a walk trough/ lease resigning with my LL)
Now it looks like a bomb went off. 
I woke up this morning to a fine layer or sun block ALL OVER my kitchen. Apparently Wendy woke up before the rest of us and decided that it was a great idea to spray it EVERYWHERE! Sun block in question was on TOP of my kitchen cabinets. Monkey Wendy got up on the counters then climbed the cabinets to get it it.

ugh my whole house smells like sun block. I was mopping my floors at 7:00 a.m. today before coffee.   

Tomorrow I will grocery shop and make cookies after work.

Thursday hosting X-mas  eve. My parents will be there with my niece. DH's parent's will be there. Dad's mom and Mom's mom too.

Friday I can't wait for the kids to open their presents. ANDPLUSALSO! this is the first year in 29 years I'm staying home Christmas day. I'm stupid excited about this. We're doing NOTHING! it's gonna be great. The kids will do stockings then breakfast. Next presents and lunch. DH is going to throw a pork loin in the crock pot for dinner and sil will come over for dinner and wine. I can't wait to play with toys all day with the kids. I'm NOT getting out of my pj's.

I really need to find my cats' pills or we are going to be listening to meowing the entire 4 hours of our trip

anyastroud- i hope the rest of the day is better then it started. I did laugh though when reading about the sunscreen. I'm so glad it's not me cleaning that up.

HoneySpider- I hope you find the pills.
