So much to do, no time to do it in

I feel like we're fighting an uphill battle with everything that we're trying to get done before we leave on vacation in...(insert crazed woman screaming here) 12 DAYS. Here's what we're attempting to do in those 12 days (keep in mind we both work full time!):

- Finish painting the moulding downstairs (this has been hampered by a, er, mis-measurement on the closet door openings...apparently they are not the same height as regular doors -- who knew? So the existing moulding has to be chopped, shortened, nailed in again, filled again, sanded again and then painted again. And paint touch ups need to happen around that. Plus some mdf has to be installed to adjust the height.

- Finish moulding in the laundry room. Fill, sand, paint. The cabinets in there need to be adjusted as well (it's a little tight!). The bottom cabinet needs to be assembled and installed.

- More paint touch ups.

- Paint doors and closet doors.

- Move and unpack my office downstairs.

- Move the moulding that's made it's home in the living room to another room.

- Unpack the Christmas extravaganza!

And so much more. Christmas cards, shopping, cleaning...and work all on top of that! Where is that cloning machine when you need it?
