I got up this morning all ready to write this post and ready to start todays tasks of taking care of some of the things on my To do list. Just as I was about to start, both kids started to cry. The oldest woke up from a nightmare, all wet from yet another accident and she woke the little one up. So needless to say, my morning ended up in changing a bed, giving one kid a shower, and doing all the other things I have to do every morning. My blog however did not get updated. So here we go…
I now I have several To do lists floating around on my blog, but being the procrastinator that I am I have not really done anything to finish those tasks.

Imressive list! You are smart to get started on your move now. This is a well-thought out plan, too. Besides, while your kids are stilll needing you, you have to have more time for big projects, like moving. Even though your morning didn't work out like you had hoped, it is so good to be able to be there when your kids need you most. This time goes by so quickly so hang in there.
Incidentally, we love IKEA meatballs. Whenever I make the trip, I always bring a couple bags home. Thanks for stopping by my blog today. I love hearing from you.
