motivation....

Why is it that when I have the most to do, I feel absolutely lazy!!!!!!!!! I have so much to do today. I have my nephews birthday party from 2-4 and my husbands birthday and our housewarming party tonight from 6-??. So, that means that I have 10-1 and then 4-5 for a total of 4 hours to get everything on my list done. Here is a list of what I have to do:

1. sweep all tile flooring
2. mop all tile flooring
3. clean the kitchen
4. clean up toy room
5. clean up master bedroom
6. clean both bathrooms
7. vacuum all carpet area
8. dust
9. Windex
10. bake brownies
11. bake french fries
12. bake the beans
13. get all the fixings together for the hamburgers
14. Set up the table and chairs outside
15. Finish hanging the lights outside
16. set up the table with all the food on it
17. weed eat some of the weeds in the back yard

Now my really big problem is that I cannot do #14, #15 or #17 without Jonathan. These are the things that will take the longest and the things I am stressing about the most. What would really help is if I could do the things by myself but I don't think that is realistic. They are simply things that would be too hard for me to do on my own. Jonathan is in Bastrop today but will hopefully be home by 1 so that he will have an hour to do some of the things. But if not, I will have him for like an hour and a half before we need to be ready for people to start showing up. I hate being stressed last minute or still putting stuff together when people are arriving. But I am afraid that is whats going to happen.

I guess I should save #10-13 till the last hour before people show up so that it will be fresh and ready to go and then I can put all the food out right before people start getting here.

I really need some help, or direction. This is when I wish my mom was here, she would give me the order I should do stuff and she would be over here helping. But nobody is here so I guess I need to figure it out on my own. Even now, I should be starting my list instead of blogging about it. Okay, seriously I am going to get to work.
