So, I told myself that I was going to spend this weekend packing. I was going to get everything in the suitcase and be all set. I did things like buy extra shampoo and toothpaste so I could pack and not have to wait to put anything (well, aside from the pump) into the suitcase. I bought all of the food and things of that nature that I needed. I have thme still in bags sitting on the floor of the closet in my bedroom.
The problem is that before I could get packing I had to gather up all the clothes for everyone. So, I figured that I would start with the kids and then bring it all to my room where I could start packing it all up. Trying to get it in where it belongs and figuring out what things I do not need when they do not fit. The problem was getting into Little Sister's room. We went up to her room figuring I would put away what was in her room and then Hubby could put together her crib. Except it was like a never ending room. I kept pulling box after box out of there. I had put all the boxes of the kids clothes in their earlier this summer. Figuring once I knew how big Little Sister was I could put out what she would need and get out those things of Big Brother's that Big Sister can wear. And then we hit snag after snag and I have not had it in me to go in there Until today! Today I went in and I got to work - by moving the boxes to the hallway.
I finally got everything put into the proper boxes and into drawers. I did manage to gather the kids clothes. And pile them up in the hallway as well. So, I can now start getting things into our suitcase - and I am hoping to do so tonight. But I had to stop because Big Sister had to take a nap and very shortly we will have to get her up and get her ready for trick or treating. So, I suppose most of it will have to get done tomorrow. Of course, tomorrow we have church and then I need to go to GNC and get something I forgot - or well I have been meaning to do and not gotten around to yet. So, yeah, somehow I need to get us packed up this weekend so that we can do all of the things we have planned for next week. And I have absolutely no idea how that is going to get done. Especially when I sit here blogging because I feel overwhelmed instead of actually putting things in the suitcase.
