Try to rest at night instead of making lists and freaking out about how you can’t get it done in a year, much less a few weeks.
Goal list date is before April 1st. Preferably, the Thursday before.
HIRE AUSTIN TO HELP (Austin, you are saving our behinds! I was so relieved when you said you would come and that you had time next week! We are so lucky!)
YEAH! GOOD LIST RAE! WOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
When I come over, I’d love to paint. (Painting wouldn’t be good for you anyway with the fumes) and garden stuff, we could do, and anything else. I’ll be there to help (a bit).
Looks great! Especially the remember to breath part. 🙂 Question: why are you selling your changing table? And why are you painting the bedroom? I love your bedroom paint! I specifically thought of that last week when we looked at your bedroom.
You can do it! Sorry I can’t help much – this is my oober-doober busy season too. I think my list of things to do beats yours 😉 hehe. But, I don’t have two babies to take care of! 🙂 Maybe I can come over after the 20th for a day or so? Hmm… 🙂
Answer, we need to make room in Anna’s room… apparently you aren’t supposed to look like you’re outgrowing the house when you’re selling it. I will have to replace it later. We’re also getting rid of my favorite easy chair and the corner section to the couch.
Answer two, Mark (real estate agent) said that red is out. “Peanut” walls with white trim are in. We may just make the whole room white. It is very sad… we like the red!
haha… red is out. Psh. It’s just too closed of a space for red to help sell the house. We’re totally into red rooms. Red is out. Psh.
I’d buy enough taupe/beige to do at least one wall of the rooms, all white may seem too hospital-ish. & is there a way you could store some of your stuff so you don’t have to rebuy it all? I guess you are selling it so you’ll be making something off it. And it’s always fun to buy things! 😀 (besides the spending money part)
