Seriously. I cannot stretch out in my bed with a book and the Olympics on TV right now because he has things in specifically organized piles which correspond to various checklists printed out from the Excel spreadsheets he has on his computer, along with I swear every single piece of luggage we own. He's just practicing getting things to fit, supposedly, but I don't see him taking things back out and putting them away...<BR/><BR/>So, Kiddo and I will likely be wearing the same outfit or our jammies all week, as Hubby has packed our remaining wardrobes already.<BR/><BR/>Hope the nose is okay - crunching cartilage is never a sound one wants to hear........ <BR/><BR/>Cheers!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04027001537835285847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3474627686283911965.post-45150529377457637022008-08-15T13:33:00.000+10:002008-08-15T13:33:00.000+10:00My favorite: "Like shoes.

I'm sorry that it caused the laundry to pile up like a poorly constructed dam and I hope it doesn't break and flood you out. I'm sorry that you crunched your face on the wall.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad your Mum could come to help.

But when there have been times that laundry has gotten out of control here - some things just get fluffed in the dryer with a wet washcloth and a fabric softener sheet. Like khakis that aren't visibly dirty (The Coach's that is), anyone's jeans or The Coach's athletic clothing (unless it stinks). You see, The Coach thinks that if an item of clothing touches his body, it has to be washed. Somehow this belief has been passed on to Uno. I, on the other hand, will wear a pair of jeans up to 3 or more times! So, that is my advice for conquering the laundry monster!! But don't tell the Coach - he doesn't know!!Adelainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12624739623309092148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3474627686283911965.post-26316902662763105812008-08-15T02:12:00.000+10:002008-08-15T02:12:00.000+10:00I think that I will get in my kayak now, I can be ...I think that I will get in my kayak now, I can be there in 42 days to lend a hand.

I think, for me, it's just been a really long cold winter. I hear you on the holiday thing too. It's not really a rest, is it? Just the same work in a fresh locale.tinsenpuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11955496156384131307noreply@blogger.com
