I couldn't read your list, Lindsay. I felt like I was going to have a stress induced asthma attack. :shifty Of course I started reading that with my own list already in my head. Today I am going to choose to do less than perfect, and I will remind myself of that regularly.

We had carpet installed on Thursday, and I am still working on getting the upstairs back to normal while cleaning and decluttering as I go. This afternoon the installer is coming back to do the stairs and then it will be done. :tu

Off to start the dishwasher, and then fold the laundry that just beeped for my attention.

I could do a mojo dance for you. Or...maybe not. You'd die of laughter and never finish anything! :shifty :giggle
What's the one thing that's bugging you the most? Go do that one thing. :yes
