And now, Monday morning, we are paying for it.
I had to literally drag myself out of bed.
The soreness from pushing and pulling the (extremely heavier than it should be) carpet cleaner over all of the soft surfaces is here in force today.
Ouch.
So, here's what we've gotten done:
- changed the locks
- updated all 2 prong outlets to 3 prong with GCFI protection
- cleaned and spot cleaned the carpets
- vacuumed the carpets
- reinforced the closet shelves and bars
- cleaned the cabinets
- bug bombed the whole house
- vacuumed and mopped the basement (eww. that was gross!)
- swept out the garage
- scrubbed both bathrooms (thanks mom!)
- painted the master bedroom (thanks dad!)
Can you tell why we are both sore and hitting the coffee like crazy this morning?
(Yes, in fact, Chad was tired enough to drink his version of coffee!!)
As we were working this weekend, I began to feel overwhelmed.
Overwhelmed, with both what needed to be done and with excitement for all of the life this house will see.
Our goal is to be there AT LEAST 5 years. We are so very sick of moving.
Even though it was snow and ice covered, every time I looked into the backyard I got excited about that garden that will be growing in the back right corner and Lord willing, the dog that will be playing in the backyard within the next 2 weeks.
Life is moving. FAST.
Projects upcoming:
- painting my craft room
- constructing the coffee bar in the kitchen
- updating the cabinet hardware
I hope to add a few photos of the progress/moving in next weekend.
I hope.
(Also, we celebrated Tyson's birthday Friday night. I'll be adding photos of that too!)
