Where’s my mask and cape?

I am going nuts thinking of the zillion things I want to do to be “ready” before their arrival.
Just to relieve my own anxiety and to illustrate how insane I really am, I am going to make a list. Right here. Right now.
In no particular order, today I need to:
- Paint the hallway upstairs so it doesn’t look like an abandoned tenement
- Touch up the wall in my bathroom where there was a water leak that messed up my nice green wall
- Do the Weed Whacker thing on my front lawn and sidewalk grass
- Trim my wild-n-crazy hedges
- Wash, dry, and put away about 8 loads of laundry
- Do meal planning and go grocery shopping accordingly
- Clean the cat boxes
- Clean the hamster cage
- Clean the kitchen
- Tidy up the living room and dining room
- Mop all the floors in the first floor
- Clean out the front porch and the back deck
- Plus, of course, make the meals and such for my kids
To do even half of this, of course, I probably need to wear a mask and cape and gain super human power. I guess I’ll just need to prioritize a little!
Wish me luck.

For the record, here’s what I actually did that day:
- Weed whacked the lawn and sidewalk grass
- cleaned the kitchen
- painted the hallway and touched up the bathroom wall
- did about 4 – 5 loads of laundry
- clean out the front porch and deck (mostly)
- some meal planning
- I didn’t mop, but I did vacuum and sweep
- I set up the air mattresses for the nieces
Too bad about the catboxes and the STINKY hamster cage.
