Hi all:
Well, I've accomplished more in my 38th week of pregnancy than I have in 3 years of living here as far as cleaning and organizing the house. The crowning glory has been moving the office into the dining room and dealing with all the fiddly things that had accumulated in boxes. No more boxes. Everything in files, the armoir, or two small baskets with some office supplies. I am superwoman. The baby's room is all set up and ready to go. I've done the kitchen cabinets, drawers, and telephone table, the laundry room/utility room, the linen closet, the vacuum closet, the piano room, and the sun room. Everything was either donated, thrown out, or placed in an uncrowded drawer, plastic storage container in the basement WITH LABELS, or in a cupboard WITH LABELS. Tomorrow AM I am doing my daughter's room (complete nightmare) and the remaining small projects can wait, if necessary. Meanwhile, O&C are happy that its nice and warm with a Chinook this week and are frolicking outside getting some sun and fresh air. Otis is playing his game of waiting by the door with muddy feet and then racing in onto the carpet for maximum mess. There were also suspicious muddy cat prints that somehow got into the baby's room and into the crib already. Had to re-wash all of that right away. I can guess who that might have been ... The cats are happy that I'm so busy with boxes and such but don't seem to be going away on holiday or moving. Just wait until they see what I bring home from the hospital ;-) Susan M Otis and Chester |

About two weeks before my son was due, I went into a cleaning frenzy, even deciding to clean out the linen closet. At 3 AM that night/next morning, I went to the hospital. My son was born a couple of hours later. Joy |
