My done list and my to do list for Monday.

Things I done did:

• Drove approximately 149.5 miles of a 150 mile trip prior to blowing out my (not at all old) tire.
• Blew out my tire half a mile from my friend's home, my final destination.
• Stayed up way too late and the slept in a twin bed with two of my children.
• Loved myself for purchasing Roadside Assistance when I swapped insurance last month. Hi, free tire change in the snow!
• Spent much of Saturday chasing down a new tire for my odd sized car. A $167 tire.
• Side note: I dealt with four different companies for all this, and had excellent customer service at all four: the company that handles Progressive's Roadside Assistance, Carter at Tow Pros, TMA and Martin at Tires Plus.  I would recommend any of them.
• Went to Target to console myself.
• (Mike, look away.)  Bought new sandals for me and the girl. (Wanted these but her feet are too thick.)
• And a shower curtain.
• Loaded all of the rest of my crap from the old house into a trailer.
• Drove 3 hours back home with a crying 5 year old who wanted out of the car. 
• Stopped at one point, in the absolute middle of nowhere, and offered to let him out.
• He declined.
• Did I mention, it was snowing? (See: new sandals.)
• Unloaded trailer at storage unit.
• Came home, did not unload car. Dude. I'm tired.
• Woke up to more snow. (See: new sandals)
• Took the Pirate to school while the Bug complained, loudly, that he wanted the Pirate to stay home.

We move on Friday. That's like 4 days away. I have a lot to do. This is my list, just for today:

• Drink coffee.
• Feed baby.
• Print new weekly to do list and fill in already scheduled tasks.
• Do dishes and wipe counters. (twice)
• Put roast in crock pot.
• Move all the laundry to the laundry room.
• Start laundry.(three loads!)
• Unload car.
• Sort boxes of crap from the car into things that go to storage, things that go to the apartment, and trash.
• Attempt to do 4 (four) hours of paying work today. (This is a bit optimistic.)(1.5 hours as of 8:45pm)
• Pack the baby's closet.
• Pack the office closet (this house has a wide closet with a built in office.)
• Do not get distracted by sorting paperwork. Just pack it.
• All the other daily things like meals, diapers, school pick up, etc.

Yeah, not so bad. I can do that. Rah rah!! (I'll let you know how it goes.)(Updated: 8:45pm- original post at 8:51, not 7:51, I can't figure out how to change the time zone for posting!)
