We got a lot done this weekend. I had to help hubby more than expected so I didn't get my entire list done, but I did completely finish all 3 bedroom floors... they look beautiful, and I won't have to do any more work on them, so, even MORE beautiful. We ran more tubing, I insulated and fastened down pipes until I ran out of pipe insulation wraps, I put up all the external sheathing and element ends on the living room and dining room heaters and hung the support sheaths for the kitchen, the plaster repairs in both rooms are sanded and in one room are painted (and you have to look close to even know they were ever there, which is good considering that two of them were 3' cracks... the initial wallboarding was plastered improperly. With the new tape reinforcement, the cracks shouldn't come back). Unfortunately I think I pushed too hard, because I got pretty sick Saturday night and today I'm really sore. It's difficult to know when to stop when you're pregnant and "when to stop" changes on a weekly basis, and you know it's just going to get worse so you try to do as much as you can now. *sigh*
Today, as much as I can manage, I need to:
- Do the laundry from the weekend
- Tidy up
- Put away the junk we brought down (we didn't get everything moved and each weekend we bring down more stuff, almost out though)
- Code a new class and integrate and test it, which is probably going to take a while, but at least it's done SITTING DOWN. woo!
- Do a bunch of address changes I just didn't get around to
- Figure out dinner
- Clean out the fridge if I'm really motivated (it really needs it)
It's going to be interesting because we can't go out for our daily play outside time, it's cold and raining. So baby is going to be annoyed.

Today I need to:
- Tidy up (wellllll.... not perfect but not hazardous to our health, good enough)
- Get ready to go to the rock show when hubby gets home (hubby's decided to go on a "preview" tour with a work friend, we'll go together tomorrow... which will avoid repeat trips while he decides what specimen he wants this year)
- Fold laundry (done)
- Clean the bathrooms (yes, I'm procrastinating on that again. heh) (done. woo!)
- Clean the fridge (done)
- Hopefully get some work done, if I can figure out what's wrong with my current project (working on it)

So yesterday didn't go so well. Today I will work on doing yesterdays list plus some stuff. I am working from 6am-7am and then again from 2pm-8pm but I will try to get done:
Clean stovetop(Done)
Brush dog(Done)
Wipe down baths
Vacuum main floor and upstairs
Wash cleaning towels
Maybe walk
So far I am on track. I got the stovetop done before I left for work this morning and the dog just got brushed. I don't think I'll get a walk in tonight since I am working too late.
