Have Mercy

Remember that totally do-able list from yesterday?

Cough.

Snort.

What list?

Okay, so here's what happened:
About two drawer liners in I thought "I should check my calendar to see how the rest of my week shakes out." I had totally overlooked the fact that I was booked solid yesterday. I thought I had a whole day to putz, and it turned out I had three cuts, two colors and a highlight. Gaaaaah!

The good news is that I still managed to bring little girl minion's new bed upstairs, all painted and pretty. I also organized and lined three drawers in the kitchen. I managed to turn a dishwater-blonde client into a gorgeous red head. The beasts were fed leftovers, and the Hubbins came home and instituted marshal law, reinstating a tidy household. The refrigerator will be dealt with today. It's gruesome.

I'm having a Girl's Night with some good friends tonight. There will be margaritas and pampering. That there, faithful readers, is a recipe for a great night. When I examine the progress made over the last week, I'm pretty pleased. It really wasn't as bad as I thought. Or maybe it was, but it isn't anymore. I still need to work on time management. I am completely guilty of overbooking myself, because I hate to tell people 'no'. That leads to that feeling of being totally overwhelmed, and my default response is a complete halt to all things productive.

Today's Bulleted Items:
  • Clean out fridge (cause, yikes.) I will show no mercy to expired condiments.
  • Prepare dinner so I can feed the Hubbins and the Minions and then send them out.
  • Wash Kitchen floor
  • Wipe down bathroom (remember the vinegar and water bottle. This keeps it so much more manageable)
  • Nap
  • Get ready for my Spa..Spahhhhhhh...

Oh, and one more fun something for you newbie readers. I think I'm going to launch some contests just for funsies. Stay tuned.
