Motivational Monday
Re: Motivational Monday
I will have to go shopping.

I also need to do some serious cleaning. And figure out how the heck to get my cats to stop peeing on one spot in the kitchen. Grumble grumble former owners pets with their scent in the grout. I need to pure Nature's Miracle or something all over the floor and leave it overnight this week I think. So that's a goal.
A bigger goal is working on my anger. Things aren't going so well and I'm not staying calm lately. Quick to anger. I don't think I can fix that in week though.

Operation Get Rid of Junk. Yesterday I cleaned out the kitchen and pantry. I took a coffeepot (we have a Keurig, we don't need it), a deep fryer, and a bag of clothes to the charity store.
This week's challenge is (still) getting Husband on board. We need to figure out how to transform our spare bedroom/office (we both work from home a lot) into a nursery and where the bookshelves/desk/office things should go.
I mapped out the new furniture and bedding I'll need to transform the girls' room from a crib-and-toddler-bed room to a big-girl-bunk-bed room, and it ain't cheap. I got the side-eye from MIL for suggesting the girls ask Santa for a bunk bed. Sigh.
