Waiting

At the beginning of the year I was thinking about the things around my house that I wanted to do this year. Not resolutions, because I assume I won't get everything done since other things will come up, but a list of things I just want to do. I've been feeling like I need a project, but everything I want to do I need to wait for something before I can start. I need to wait for more money to be saved, for warmer weather, to not be pregnant, recycling to be picked up, .... So I started to think there wasn't anything I can work on. Then I looked at my kitchen and realized I'm not waiting for anything to clean my kitchen, or my room, or most rooms in my house. Just cleaning isn't fun, but it will make the biggest impact on how my house looks. So even though it's not what I want to do, it's what I need to do.

Happy news! I get to start a new craft project. I really like starting projects, it's getting to the end that is hard. I'm going to start a quilt for Edison. He will need a bigger blanket in a few months when we move him to a bigger bed. I also want to start working on scrap-booking again. There is lots to do there.

So my plan for the week is: Figure out what I am doing for Edison's quilt, one scrapbook page, and finish cleaning up from the holidays and Tyler's birthday.
