Packing? Leaving? AACCKK!!!!

OK, I did a lot on my "day off" yesterday, including cleaning - a lot - because my friend Poo is arriving on Saturday and we leave on Sunday for Bead & Button Show in Milwaukee. I refuse to have my home look like a tornado hit it - just a minor windstorm, please. But that entails dusting, cleaning, etc. And inbetween all of that, I wanted to get my cloak to the point where I could bring it with me to try working on the embroidery. I think what's going to happen instead is I will bring a fabric sample and some sample ribbon, practice the stitch, and figure out the exact design that I want instead of packing the entire cloak. But I would still like to get the sides sewn before I leave, if possible. Tick, tock......



Time is most certainly running out. I haven't even started packing yet and I only have two more nights available. So, tonite I will clean the living room. DH said he would clean the kitchen table (only appropriate since most of the junk on it is his) and do the vaccuuming, at least on the upstairs level. That will leave some work for Friday, but since we also want to mow the lawn at the old house, the time will be more constrained. Then, off to the airport on Saturday to pick her up and then I can start to get excited about our upcoming trip. It's sad when I'm too busy to allow myself time to be excited about an upcoming vacation.
