A Not So Quickie Update

Project: Unpack Before Will Gets Back From The JMT is well underway, despite its lengthy title (and despite the curveball he threw me...he's coming home a week early!).

I've made lists of things I need to buy, and with the help of a few friends, have actually gotten quite a bit of unpacking done. Dude, I did like, 5 boxes tonight. Because I like to organize my brain in lists, here's a little list of to-do's. Warning: it's long. This is the next two weeks of my life. Starting with...tomorrow.

• Thursday after work
• get a massage oh yeah woo hoo!
• Google+ hangout with Aly
• unpack swag bag suitcase from BlogHer
• pack bag for LA (going home this weekend)
• mail something to Will. It's tricky, because he gets to his next resupply in 4 days, and the one after that only 6 days or so after that. So I have to get on it. And possibly pay for some quick shipping. Hopefully I don't have to do this Friday/Saturday, but I might have to. 
• Friday after work
• fly home
• Saturday
• relax with the folks, maybe ship a package to Will? Send Lyz her post-blogher "left behind" package?
• evening dinner with Los Angeles bloggy ladyfriends
• Sunday
• Disneyland!
• Monday
• Fly home in the morning
• Disqus beach trip in the evening
• Tuesday after work
• pilates!
• unpack something! 
• move gift wrap stuff to guest room
• assemble kitchen cart, assuming it's arrived? maybe wait for a friend to help with this one.
• do some laundry? I can only assume I'll have a ton by then.
• Wednesday after work
• ballet...hopefully I'll find my shoes by then
• dinner with a visiting friend (Hi, Rachel)
• unpack? assemble kitchen cart?
• Thursday after work

• take the day off work, spa day! I have a feeling this will be much-needed.

• Saturday
• brunch? 
• pick up stuff I bought from Steve & Kate's Camp in El Cerrito
• Target run?

• unpack - can I please be done unpacking by this time?
• Thursday after work

• Sara B concert at Shoreline
• sleep over in San Carlos?
• Saturday
• Monterey Bay Aquarium with Katherine.
• Sunday

• Sleep.

Unpacking schedule may vary based on my mood.  Things to unpack: pots and pans (waiting on kitchen cart), books (waiting on 2nd bookshelf), movies (waiting on tv stand), games, tech crap, office stuff, canned food, dresser stuff...and I feel like there are more things but I don't want to walk around the living room taking inventory right now.

I think it's reasonable, though looking at the list makes me feel a little crazy.  I can do it!!?

PS no plans (well, besides Tues Pilates and Weds ballet) the week after this list of wonders...except oh wait, that next weekend we fly to Washington for a wedding, and the one after that we go to Colorado, and the one after that probably a wedding in Santa Barbara (travel plans permitting), and then we will both crash and sleep for a few days?


I feel lucky to have so much awesome in my life, but um, am I a crazy person?  Seriously, please let me know.  I'll be in bed.
