Guest room declutter is slow and terrible. Makes sense as it's our junk room / deal with this later room, but ugh I'm hating the slowness and just want to do the least instead of actually decluttering.
That's where I always stop decluttering lilyelayne. I get to the guest (junk) room and get overwhelmed. It's easy to declutter the kitchen or my closet, stuff I'm in every day. That room is full of I might need it someday and someone gave it to me stuff. Hence why poor A is still in our room. We make some progress but then we don't finish and everything end up back in there, it never makes it to goodwill.
My H always has to come help me bc I get overwhelmed with that too lilyelayne. He needs to pull things out and say what about this? There's no way I could do it on my own.
Yesterday I tackled the upstairs (made up guest room, did towels, cleaned bathrooms, etc.). Today I did the downstairs (pick up, dust, vaccuum, wet jet). My parents came to visit for a bit. They picked up a pizza for lunch and it was so tempting but I only had one little middle piece. 😥
Someone mentioned that their little was acting like a threenager (aggiebug?) and I'm totally noticing that with A now. It might be an adjustment period due to nap dropping FX.
ETA: forgot to mention MIL is visiting for the weekend starting tomorrow afternoon.
Well, my sister passed away a few hours. We had just come back up from the cafeteria, we were in her room for probably 20 minutes, and she just quit breathing. It was very peaceful, just as everyone hoped.

Hugs mmarie. Though nothing could make losing your sister easier, I'm glad she was peaceful and surrounded by family. We are here if you need to talk/vent/whatever.

dreemkin DH is the one who would keep everything. I'm like leave the bed & the computer and TOSS EVERYTHING. Which isn't actually useful because we need a lot of that stuff.

mmarie I'm so sorry. I'm glad that you were there in time to be with her and that it was peaceful. Thinking of you and your family and hoping that you're spared dealing with this hurricane so you can spend the time with your family remembering your sister.

I was working from home today so that DH and I could go to "orientation" at daycare for JoJo, but they ended up not being able to fit us in today so DH is going to go solo tomorrow with both girls in tow. I'm a little annoyed they're having us do an orientation at all seeing as E's been in that daycare for over 2 years, but now I'm also disappointed I won't be able to go because I feel like I'm always the mom that is at work instead of being there for all of the daycare things.
mmarie I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. May you find peace in her peace and comfort in the memories you have of her. Lots of love and prayers during this difficult time.

I'm glad you were able to be there with her at the end.
