The lazy bug has hit me again… AND I WAS DOING SO WELL BEFORE THAT! This is the second day of it. Hopefully it is only a 48 hour bug. sigh….

According to my calculations, I could have this baby any time after the next 7 weeks. J was born at 38 weeks. I’m 31 now.. so do the subtraction. :) I’m not terrified about it, this just the incentive I need to get off my ass both at work and at home. I need to write up a 7 week plan. (make that 6, just in case)

On the forum I frequent, I managed to start a weekly countdown-to-baby challenge. So far, it’s working out great. But I feel I still need to create a 6 week plan so I can have an eagle eye view of what has to get done. There’s so much too. But I think what scares me is that I forget the items because it’s all been in a mental list which seems to change and warp in size each time i think of it. And the ghost items which appear and disappear .. the most important of all too, and the fact that they disappear from my memory is scary. Can you imagine if I keep forgetting to register at the hospitals and have to fill out paperwork while in labor?! or I forget to pack a hospital bag? or those insurance checks expire? or I forget to get J her passport done? omg. And that doesn’t cover the cleaning that the house really really needs badly…

I rejoined FlyLady last night. I dunno how much of a help that will be. It depends on me, really. we’ll see.
but the mess in the house has got to stop. It’s just too much and we all have our limits. Things are worse now because we’re redoing the guest bedroom for Jada and allll the furniture and toys are all over the place.

I’ll be posting before & after pics when it’s all done. I think one more weekend and the hardest parts will be done. Then we can get all the STUFF back in that room and organized. AFter this, however, I need to gut the closet and buy a new shelving solution. ..and get D to install it. oy. In the meantime, J will still use her old closet but should be sleeping in her new room. :) I sure hope she doesn’t have a fit when we put her in there. She REALLY loves her bed.
