Perhaps it’s the “nesting” thing. I don’t know. But I have been on an “organizational” flurry today. I’m not sure where this energy is coming from, either. It’s sure not because I got a good night sleep. Anyway, by 8:30 this morning, I already had one cabinet, a counter top and 3 drawers cleaned out and re-organized in the kitchen. Then I went to the store and bought a few things to decorate the table with for Thanksgiving (I’ll post pictures of our table later this week). After lunch, I cleaned out our dish cupboard and the shelves above the pantry. My Mother is sending me one of my Grandmothers’ china patterns, along with her Swedish Crystal, and I needed a place to put them. So I cleaned out our dish cupboard, putting away things that we don’t regularly use, which has given me a whole shelf to put the new things on. Hopefully, one shelf is enough room!
I want to make Grace a dress for Sunday and I need to cut out some pj’s for Isaac. But I’m not sure it will happen today. I’m thinking of taking a nap. At the moment, my mind is thinking of what next to organize. But my body is saying, “No way, buddy! I need sleep!”. And, of course, the baby is kicking away. The room in there has grown smaller and smaller. But no has told the baby yet! Either that, or s/he is just as stubborn as their parentage and since they want to move, they’re going to move!
6 more weeks or so from today. 6 weeks out and I’m already counting. That’s not a good sign…..
