Ready or Not ....

.... ummmmmmm .... I'm choosing "not".

And here's why:
(Oh, and Son #1 came home Monday, to spend some time with me before I leave and to stay while I'm gone.  Isn't he great?)



  To put it bluntly ..... I guess you could say we've been torturing the cat:


You see, as I was purging the house I found a little OSU football jersey that we bought years ago for a much smaller animal (a dog).  I left it out and when the 2 of the Sons came into my room they saw it.  I tossed it to Son #1 and asked if he remembered it.  He chuckled and said that he did.  He asked what I was doing with it and I told him it would look good on the cat .... and then told him to try to get it on Oliver, though I doubted that he would succeed.

                 He does good work:


              But that good work led to this:


                  Which led to this:


  Which led to this (help me out here, does he look a little p***ed off to you?):
Yes, I can see that my bed skirt is a bit frayed.
Don't judge.

After a few moments he seemed to have recovered (at least enough to try and kill me with his green lasers of death):




Little did I know that he was forming a plan (and again, I hate to be a bother, but is he still p***ed?!):





                         Which led to this (look closely):


                       A little closer ......



                Well what do you know?!  He's a little smarter than I thought:




All of that is just an elaborate excuse for why my bedroom looks like this:



                          And this:


                           And this:



           And .... why my bathroom looks like this:


So .... yeah ..... I'm not ready.
Which is ok ..... since I'm not leaving until Saturday.
Morning.
Yikes!  That gives me 12 less hours than I had been thinking!

Wait ................................................. okay, much better.
That was me ..... waiting for the moment of panic intense stress to pass.
And I just noticed that "House Hunters International" is on ...... so I'm going to watch that now .....
and panic .... clear a space on my bed so that I can sleep on it get things a bit more organized later.

Because really ..... when I can find out how much it would set me back cost to purchase a home in lovely Honduras ..... why would I spend time panicking organizing?
I can always sleep on the couch.

Happy Wednesday, Peeps.
:)
And no, you may not ask me about the exercise ball.

:D Love the green laser eyes. I believe we have had those moments with our cat. For some reason they don't like to be dressed up =/ and they can wiggle out of anything!

As I was looking at your pictures, I thought, hmmmm, looks like my home -- and I'm not going anyplace!! :(

I hope you have a wonderful trip with your mother and if you are taking that exercise ball -- you truly ARE an amazing packer!!! :DDD

Much love and safe travels!

Too funny!! I too had a exercise ball gracing my bedroom floor. Since then I've tossed it behind the couch. Not quite so obvious there. What? you're actually supposed to use them???? *tee hee hee**
