Anyone else a bit snowed under with all the preparation, getting the house in a reasonable state for Xmas? I am. Hard enough keeping up with the regular housework ATM due to DH being injured
I am excited too though, I'm free from studies for a while and as DH is off work with the injury I will actually have more time for sorting stuff out. And this year it'll be actually sorting stuff not just moving it all to a different room
We have until 22nd as that is when DH's kids stay over for the first of 3 celebrations (we are just us on 25th, then my relations come on 26th)
So far my main priorities are:
Have ALL toys upstairs to allow space for presents to be played with
Clear table/under it as that's where our tree is going this year due to inquisitive toddler
Move bookcase upstairs for more storage in DD's room
Create more room in kitchen somehow
Generally clear up all the random crap especially in the living room and stairs
Tidy the bathroom as it's an embarrassment... Much like the rest of this house really!
Sort out DC's toys and get rid of useless/broken bits, organise what's left to make room for Xmas presents
Anyone else?
