Spring Operation and Easter Preparation

Here's the deal...We are having our first family party at our new home and I really, REALLY need to get it together and finish some things around the house so I am ready for Easter.

I had aired some of my dirty laundry before and now I need to add to this list...


1.Clean the other half of the basement steps- yes I only cleaned half and left the rest dirty. It is true. EVERY time I walk down them I think about how I should finish cleaning them...

2. Bring my couch and rug from the condo over to the house so the living room is no longer EMPTY. I think people that come over are tired of sitting on the floor.

3. Make your magnet chalk board. You own the magnet paint, and chalk paint, and frames and chalk for heavens sake- make it already. Aren't you tired of hearing your husband ask "what's for dinner?" You could write it on the chalk board and point to it the next time he asks.

4. make shelves for my son's room.

5. Unpack all my sons books and toys that go on those shelves

6. Bring the dining room table over from my in laws house.

7. I guess I have to recover the chairs to that dining room table set. Otherwise some one's butt might fall through a chair.

8. Finish staining the wood trim in the kitchen. I am kind of getting tired of looking at the blue tape.

9. Hang something on at least one wall in the house

10. Try and finish this list before Easter (yeah right)

11. Bring the china over from my moms, unpack it and wash it.

12. Make place cards

13. Plan Easter dinner

14. Wash every window in my house

15. Set the table for Easter

16. Find and hang a valance for my bathroom window.

17.Find blinds for the kitchen sitting room combo 

18. Reupholster a chair (really?)

So this list has grown larger even though I crossed things off of it!  I'm sure I will add to it before I finish it. Isn't that how it always goes?

Wish me luck...I'm going to need it!
