I really need my nesting instincts to kick in...

We're doing a massive renovation on our house and we are trying to get it finished by the time the baby gets here.  But before it can get finished, it needs to get started.  We've done all the planning, but now I need to empty out all three bedrooms in the next week (did I mention that I have no place to store the stuff) and shortly after that the kitchen and dining room need to be emptied.   I want to use this opportunity to de-clutter the house, but I have no motivation.   Instead I'm sitting on the couch bumping...

Someone want to help me out and give me a much needed kick in the ass? (and while you're at it, give one to DH as well?)

    I will give you a kick if you give me one!  (And all I have to do is clean the bathroom and do laundry, lol).

    I need some too. ?I really wanted to start clearing out the room that will be the baby's, but it just is so not happening. ?But in my defense, DH needs to help too. ?We have an old (barely functioning) computer, desk and printers back there that need to either be thrown out or relocated. ?Asking him for help on this is like pulling teeth!

    Good luck.  My only advice is to try to break things down into smaller desks -- instead of starting with one room, pick one thing in the room that would take a half hour or less.  Tackle that and then tell yourself you can take a break.

    I'm in the same boat. Instead of doing stuff I just keep making a list of stuff I need to do. Every girl needs a "to do" list right?

    I hear you, my husband collects old computer stuff that I have to dust.  Getting him to move, pack, and or get rid of it is worse than pulling teeth.  Plus, even if he gets started, something always distracts him.
