if we're gonna burn out, let's do it together. let's all meltdown together

in order to ready myself for a 2 month trip to utah, here is my to do list. it makes me exhausted just looking at it. and i'm almost certain that only about half the list will actually get completed. two things you must know: a) our friend, anton, is moving in with lee while i am gone because he needed a place and lee needed a friend. b) lee doesn't do laundry or pay the bills. but he will. oh yes, he will.

1. clear toys in basement for anton
2. make list of bills & due dates for lee
3. make list of items to bring (love making a list that says to make a list)
4. finish all laundry, fold, put away
5. stock cleaning supplies; show lee and anton (high hopes, babe, high hopes)
6. clean my closet
7. clean out laundry room
8. show lee cycles on washer and dryer (lol)
9. make list for lee to get house ready for bree and mom (they will be traveling back with me)
10. return all library items
11. put all winter clothes away (is this really necessary? i mean it was only 55 today)
12. de-clutter each room
13. get battery for video camera
14. finish wings for london's musical
15. get dvd player together & charged
16. get minnesota driver's licenses and fax to AAA so they don't cancel our insurance (& so i don't go to jail for driving with an expired license for what, 8 months now? oops)
17. get sewing machine ready so i can bring it & use it.
18. clean out the car
19. oil change

well, there you have it. if i don't return any of your phone calls, this is why. not to mention, i'm pregnant, which basically removes any & all obligations.

p.s. scarlett was at a friend's house today and when i went to pick her up her mom said, "well, they did really well except for one major mishap." what's that? "scarlett cut miriam's hair." oopsies. right in the front. double oopsies. "but at least its still long enough to put a clip in it." way to think positive. sorry rachel!!!

I love your blog. You are particularly funny on here. It totally makes me miss you. Can't wait for you to get here. Btw, you could totally borrow my sewing machine instead of dragging yours across the country. just a thought. Are you going to finish your awesome quilt? loves xoxo

Eeek! Raina, I'm sorry, I should've come to your blog sooner and seen this. I mean, I knew you were over whelmed, but show Lee how to use the washer? I would've helped much more! Maybe I'll send David over to show him what he knows (is there an abbreviation for, rolling-on-the-floor-with-tears-of-side -splitting-laughter?) rothfwtossl.
Seriously, let me know if there is anything I can do on this end.
Have fun!

What. Tell Lee he needs to get it together and learn how to run a washer. You can tell him I said that.
