Why is it that the days leading up to a vacation are so crazy? Are you like me and have to have the entire house spotless before you can leave? We still aren't sure when we are going to get to head back, either Tuesday or Wednesday, though. I'm praying for Tuesday, because I would really like for my family to see A before I have to take her back home, but if we don't arrive until Thanksgiving morning we have to take her straight to K and Thugboy.
I have a few loads of laundry to wash, plus the bed sheets. The living room needs to be dusted, vacuumed, and picked up. I need to wash, dry, and put away all dishes and pots and pans. My fridge needs to be cleaned out. Both bathrooms need to be scrubbed. I need to sweep and mop the downstairs floors. The bedroom needs to be picked up. I would love to have my office organized before we leave, but with a two year old, I'm not counting on it. I also need to wash and vacuum the car. I also need to reposition A's seatbelt in her car seat and wash the cover. I also need to pack up all her belongings to take back home to Memphis. Oh, and I need to put our Christmas decorations up.
The part that sucks is taking the drive. And, we're coming back to Tallahassee Saturday. Can we say, e-x-h-a-u-s-t-e-d?

Wow -- I like to make sure our beds are made before we go out of town, but you are way more thorough than I am on the "clean before you leave" policy. Quite impressive! Good luck getting everything accomplished. Here from ICLW.
I too am impressed by your ambition leading up to a trip -- I feel like things are crazy no matter what, and we end up leaving the house a disaster, coming home to a giant mess.
Good luck and have a good trip!
It's so true that you need a vacation before and after a vacation lol. I hope you have time to rest and recover! Here from ICLW.
I am totally like you, and can't leave until the house is spotless. So it'll be less stressful coming home. But it does make the leaving quite stressful!
Wow. I am tired just listening to all that work. It is nice to come home to a clean house after vacation.
You know I realized we don't take enough vacations for me to even Have a plan like that. lol.
