My list is growing daily...I hate it (it's in no particular order):
1. sleep (DS has had a cold off and on for a month and doesn't sleep well) 2. schedule my spa day 3. get a haircut 4. Organize medical bills from 2014 for taxes 5. catch up on laundry 6. plan meals for the following week 7. deep clean everything 8. organize everything 9. take down tree 10. Finish at least ONE of my many knit/crochet/sewing/craft projects 11. Set up a dinner with my friends that I haven't seen in forever 12. do a hangout with brother and best friend 13. update baby book (before I forget stuff) 14. back up all photos
I'm sure none of this will get done - DH is going on a business trip - it's just one night, but it's going to throw DS off a lot - daddy always reads him a book at night.
My realistic list.
1. Make sure baby is happy and healthy 2. Feed self 3. Brush teeth (baby's too) 4. (optional) shower..... 5. Try not to be mean to DH eventhough I'm super tired
I made sure to back up my photos as so many of them are on my phone and right before Christmas it fell out of my pocket when I was putting the stroller in the trunk at the mall. I got home and was frantic, drove back to the mall and was in tears searching the ground when I heard "it's here". Thank god the nicest man found it and was just getting in his truck to leave. So, that story might be enough to help you get one of your chores done lol

I use the Amazon Cloud. I have the app on my phone, & it's set to automatically backup all my photos & videos across all my devices (don't like the Apple cloud). You get unlimited photo backup if you're a Prime member. Limited for videos, but you can just buy the additional storage for videos.
I just did a huge double LO clothing purge. Mostly outgrown stuff with some random 3 year old rejects ("backwards" pajamas and itchy pants and every.single.sweater) thrown in.
I basically have one room per day that I clean, plus a quick kitchen-dining room-living room tidying every night before bed. I try not to even think about the other messes until their designated day.
Today I really need to meal plan, though. Tomorrow DH comes home after 11 days OOT training for a new job, so I'm really excited to go grocery shopping alone.

1) Clean the pool. I've been procrastinating because it's cold as hell outside (well, by a Texans standards). I don't want to stick my hand into freezing water to pull out debris the bottom pool cleaner has in it.
Because dh is whiny today (we need a new mattress and I used a pillow to prop myself up in bed because of my knee so we each slept half falling off the bed), I'm going to stain the fence for him. But first, I must motivate myself off the toilet and into a cup of coffee.

I have thought of this. Luckily all my phone photos are backuped up automatically online, so if something were to happen to my phone I will be able to retrieve all of those. I'm mainly concerned about my laptop pictures. There are also thousands of pictures and I'm a super freak when it comes to organizing them... so it takes me hours to back up pictures...I should just let it go for now and do a quick copy...

You are much nicer than I. I'd milk that knee at least another day or two. Does the fence really need stained today?
HOA will likely be flipping out if we don't reassemble it soon. It's been a 3 day project. DH can apply the finish and hopefully have it up tomorrow.
Oh my God. My house is such a mess that I'm paralyzed with an inability to do anything because I have no idea where to start. Ugh.
This is me. I know what needs to be done, and the list is a mile long, and I've done nothing all week. NOTHING. I'm so frustrated that when DH got home yesterday I told him I needed to get out and left on my own.
Omg the list is never ending! Ib have a ton of things to do! I really want to start organizing pictures but I feel like if I do that, all hell will break loose and the house will be a disaster :/
I had a melt down last Saturday because DH was giving me a hard time about feeding DD. He didnt want to feed her so I lost it! I told him I need more help from him on weekends. I cut him slack on weekdays.
Hmm. I thought I was so accomplished today when I called the handyman, paid my student loans, and submitted HOA documents.
Then I looked back at this list and realize all the things I didn't accomplish, especially for ds1's birthday this week. Just a family get together with balloons, cake, and ice cream. Then again, MIL and SIL2 are feuding right now, so one may not show while the other does.
I wouldn't be this nervous pre-baby. But it's so hard to study and when I'm baby free, I'm so tired! I'm thinking I'll bite the bullet and take it sooner than later!
