My helper's for the day...Prom Post #2

My beautiful helper's for the day....

...10:15 am and the first scream just occured... Over having her make up done at Mac... We have discussed Zanex for Chelsey, BUT Carla, Ashley and I may need it.

Prom morning... Post #1

Prom morning, I wake up at 7:14am....let the fun begin!

Princess Chelsey (aka Promzilla) wakes up at 9:30am

Hair at noon, mani/pedi at 1pm....back home to do make up. In dress and ready by 4:30pm, so that Dallas can whisk her away to pictures at 5pm, party bus to North Dallas for dinner, back to Celina for Prom, and then they aren't sure after that. Sounds really simple...let's see how it goes!

Friday cleaning frenzy!

Started at 8am...hall closet cleaned out completely, CHECK. Chelsey's room and closet cleaned up, CHECK. Colby's room and closet cleaned up, CHECK. Their bathroom cleaned up, CHECK. Dining Room cleaned, CHECK. Office cleaned, CHECK. Linen Closet cleaned, CHECK. Guest Bedroom (i.e., my room) cleaned up, CHECK. Bar cleaned off completely, CHECK. Movies and the boys toy cabinet cleaned, CHECK. Floor swept, cabinet nicks touched up, CHECK. Dinner cooked, CHECK. Dishes cleaned up, everything in it's place, CHECK. Notice I didn't mention food until dinner....never stopped, never sat down, exhausted and to bed just before midnight. Monday, I shall work on the attic, pantry, laundry room, upstairs media room, and guest closet. After that, I'll tackle the garage and other garage..... I think dynamite would be easier!

As for job update, I turned down the Temp Job that I was to start on Monday, for a full time job, that I've asked to start on the 10th, to give me one more week to work on the house.

Whew...

Closet...

Never touched the dining room today. Decided to full out clean out my side of the closet. Does one really need 40+ pair of undies? I think not.... Out with the old under clothes, about 30 pair of shoes, trouser socks with no match, scarves that I've had for 10 years...the list is endless and NOW I can FINALLY say, it's perfect...well except, I still need to go thru and purge a few purses. Check it out!
As for Prom, which is quickly approaching, Saturday....we got Chelsey's extensions this afternoon at Sally Beauty Supply. And, best of all, with no fight what so ever!
As for employment....still waiting on final info for the full time job. Still have the Temp Job to start Monday. Decisions decisions...
Happy Thursday...

Waiting....and waiting....and waiting some more!

Wednesday is now a blur....day was spent walking the floors, waiting to hear back from Tuesday's interview. Can't just walk the floors, SOOOO, I cleaned out our (or I should say MY side of our closet). Three piles of clothes, almost 3 feet high. INSANE!

Today, I shall clean out the office and dining room. I've set up a "make shift office" in our formal (i.e. use it twice a year room), and now I need to convert it back! Just a few more things to clean up and I'll have the inside of the house showroom ready to list for sale....then, will have to work on the outside...

Happy Thursday, now let's see what this day brings!

Quick diet update...

My EXTREME DIET is working.....6 pounds lighter this morning that I was on Monday, yea!

Monday and Tuesday catch up

Spent entire day Monday cleaning out ALL kitchen cabinets and drawers. My back hurt so bad, I actually went to bed before 10pm, which never happens... Good news is the kitchen looks great. Now....I found 7 ice cream scoops, 26 serving spoons and 21 spatulas. What was I thinking?

Today....interview in Lewisville....went well, I think. Should hear back tomorrow. If it doesn't work out, I still have the Temp Job available. Either way, it appears I'll be driving to work on Monday!!!

Pam

P.S. I've also started what I'd call an EXTREME DIET...4 pounds in 2 days so far. Goal is to follow it for a minimum of 21 days and a maximum of 40 days...I think I can, I think I can!
