Finished my last project, now what?

[mamaveggie]

I finished the baby blanket I started knitting 27 weeks ago and everything is ready for the baby. I went as far as getting a halloween costume and a christmas stocking. I have my meals frozen along with 8 loaves of quick breads, (pumpkin chocolate chip & white chocolate raspberry almond) 2 dozen ginger blueberry muffins. We also went to Sam's club and stocked up on assorted beverages because I remember how thirsty I was when I was bfing dd. We've got healthy snacks, a fully stocked fridge, people on call around the clock to watch dd when we go. I don't know what else to do. I was out raking the backyard of leaves and apples, but my back started hurting. What is everyone else up to? Please give me some ideas before I start polishing the silver.

I'm purging my maternity clothes, moving out the stuff I don't fit in and moving the post birth clothes back upstairs. Yippee for creating more room!

Do you have all of your holiday gifts ready? I've also been working on that.

Other than that, go knit some more. Or make sure the batteries are changed in your smoke detectors and your camera.

Your freezer sure sounds tasty!

Summer maternity clothes are packed up and the few things that fit me are left. My christmas shopping is 80% done, since I started with after christmas sales last year and have been enjoying my co-op access on the Trading Post. We just moved in here in August and replaced all of the old detectors with new ones; we have painted, ripped down wallpaper in every room but our bedroom and decorated. I decorated for Halloween yesterday. It seemed like I would never get it all done, now I have and the boards are pretty much dead over the weekends. Bah.

Yeah, c'mon over! I still have plenty on my list!

I am cooking and sewing next week, and hopefully getting into some of the little corners that never quite get cleaned.

Wow, I just used hope and cleaning in the same sentence, as though it was something to look forward to! Hmmm... ya think I might be nesting?!
