Packing Up!!!

Erik and I are truly ambitious this weekend. We sent the kids to my inlaws yesterday until tomorrow and are packing up the condo, completing little projects and hope to have the condo on the market next week. It is now 1:45 and for the last 3 hours I have been in Olivia's room!!!! I packed up 3 boxes of "crap", 2 bins of clothes that both she and Scott have already grown out of, cleaned out stuff from under her bed that Erik and I keep trekking from one place to another of which we will probably never use again but for some reason can't get rid of. I have dusted every nook and cranny of her room, cleaned the hardwood floor and cleaned out the closet. Her room is done, but all of the "crap" is now in the middle of her room! We rented a storage unit for a couple of months and want to move all of this stuff over there to get out of the way and make some space and "stage" the condo for the market.

Erik is now on his 2nd trip to Home Depot. He has replaced the front screen door and sanded the ceiling from where we had to patch a hole in it after fixing the tub leak. UGH! He is buying now replacement doors for all of the bedrooms, bathrooms and closet doors to spruce it up a bit and a new vanity for the downstairs bathroom since we replaced the medicine cabinet, light fixture and toilet which are all now white and the vanity/sink is off white, so we need to get something to match.

I have taped the stairs and carpeting so I can paint the trim, but oh boy do we have soooooooooooooooooooooo much more to do. I think trying to cram in a week's worth of work into a weekend is truly out of our reach, but we will see what happens. Wish us luck...we need to get into a house!
