Sometimes it really helps to write out a plan.
A few things need to happen in my household soon.
1. Sort through dishes and make box of things to take to Goodwill.
2.Wash and put out dishes I've had in boxes for years for when I finally ended up somewhere.
3. Fog the kitchen for roaches.
4. Move in the groovy little chest freezer I got on Craigslist for a steal and the repainted.
So the question is: how to do this is the most logical, productive way?
After I fog, everything is gonna be kinda gross. So it would make sense to go ahead and pack up the stuff I want to donate, but not yet put out the stuff I want to use. After I fog I'll be running the dishwasher lots and so can stick said new dishes in that job. Then move the freezer in once I've cleaned up post fogging.
Complications:
1. If I pack up most of my dishes to donate, then I don't have dishes (getting rid of most) until Wednesday at best.
2. Where do the critters and I go while fogging happens?
Okay, 2 is easy. We'll all go hang out in my office.
And I just need a plan in place for 1.
I'll have a smoothie or oatmeal in the morning. Easy enough to clean up before fogging. I'll take my lunch to work, no biggie there. Dinner is the problem. I could get fast food and eat it in the office, but...I'd rather not. It's money I should spend and junk I shouldn't eat.
I have some bean soup in the freezer. I could take it out tonight and stick it in the fridge. Then grab it as we head up to my office and heat it up and eat there.
Have I solved all my problems?
Time to get to sorting.
You know, except I'm tired and have a headache. I could watch one more episode of Treme instead. Then wash the dishes in the sink and go to bed. I could come home early enough to sort, then fog.
Procrastination, thy name is Jackie
