I am the Master Procrastinator. If I could paid to put things off the way I do, I would be filthy rich! I've never had to pack an entire household for a long-distance move before and for those of you who have done it, you know that it is not easy or fun. Max is at work all day and I'm home with the kids and in between playing with them, I have to motivate to pack. So a typical day goes like this:
- Wake up and eat breakfast then shower
- Let the kiddies sleep in or else I'd never start the packing process
- Magnus will wake up and I need to make him breakfast
- Then Joli will wake up in the middle of me making him breakfast so then Magnus has to wait or he gets cold cereal (poor kid)
- Change Joli's diaper, nurse her, play with her then put her in her swing
This whole process takes about two hours. I then attempt to go back to packing but then someone needs something and I really can't. So yesterday, I literally managed to pack just one box. One box. It was the coat closet. Needless to say, I did not feel very productive yesterday however, dinner was on the table by the time Max came home and the kids were fed, clean and happy so I guess I'm not doing all that bad. Oh and I also managed to shovel while both kids were napping. Man, if only I could clone myself. Or be an octopus but I really could use the extra hands/arms.
