Thank you Sarah Palin

and Joe Biden too, of course. Because of you all classes at FU were canceled for the next two days. The VP debate is happening tonight at our neighbor WashU's campus and streets will be closed in a ridiculous ratios around the campus.

So Madeline's day care is paid for and I still had my morning class so what does that mean? I got a massive amount of stuff done!!


That is just the front side of my list. If you click on it you can see how many things I have crossed off.

I have

• cleaned the sheets on our bed and all of the towels in the house
• put away all the clean dishes and reloaded the dishwasher
• taken out the recycling and the trash
• cleaned the kitchen counters
• cleaned off the dining room table (no small feet)
• put away all of the laundry (like three weeks worth of clean laundry for me...argh)
• dusted the entire house
  
• reorganized all of Madeline's toys, including moving them around and putting some in the basement
• cleaned the bathroom
• swiffered all the hardwood/tile floors (so the whole house)
• then I got on my hands and knees and cleaned the living/dining room floor!!!!!!!! Oh, my grandmother would be so proud. (according to her it isn't clean unless you are on your hands and knees.)
• then I mopped the kitchen floor

Now all that is left for today is to make the bed (which I will wait for Kevin to do, b/c it is easier with two people) and hang our fall wreath on the door. Tomorrow I want to tackle the basement or maybe the office. Both are horrifying. Truly. At any moment I might get lost in a paperwork avalanche in the office. Totally not kidding.

I havn't been this productive since before Madeline was born. I am exausted.
