i have such an unbearable itch to spring clean.  but there are many problems with this situation...

for one, where i live, it is not yet "spring."  in fact there is (MORE EFFING) snow in tonight's forecast.

two, we're moving in a month and a half - so it feels a little bit pointless to really get down and dirty cleaning this place we won't be in for too much longer, a place i am only going to soon mess up with boxes, packing paper, suitcases and labels.

three, i'm pregnant and can feel my energy waning like a needle on a gas tank when you only have a quarter in there to begin with... down, down, down.  i feel SO slobby when our place is a wreck during the week, but i've decided to let myself off the hook during the week.  chores can wait till the weekend, i tell myself, b/c during the week i am sosososo busy and on my own (most of the time).  starting a cleaning or clearing project at 8pm after working all day, sometimes at two places, and feeding and bedding adam just ain't happening right now on a wednesday night.

but... there are SOME things that i'm gonna do:
1- ebay.  there are SO many things sitting around our apartment that need to go.  especially before we move.
2- desk.  that desk i got eric for valentine's day?  it's sitting smack dab in the middle of our living room b/c i haven't yet cleared the crap off the old one and put the new, better one in its place.
3- find baby stuff.  this one is giving me the most anxiety...  i have to go through boxes and find what we have and think about a shopping trip for the rest.  like, pronto.  before i hit E, officially.

good news is....... next week, there is construction happening where i work, meaning i'll be working from home all week long!  while i will be home getting work work done, i will also be home ALONE -  such a rarity in my life.  adam will be at school.  eric at work.  and that's when i'll be laying the smack down on 1, 2, and 3. 

and also taking naps.
