I think my nesting has begun. I just literally did all of my laundry. Even all the items that are hand wash only. I also rewashed every piece of underwear by literally emptying the whole drawer in the washer...
What nesting activities have people done so far? Any crazy moments of nesting to share?
Re: Crazy Nesting Activities
My husband is on a crazy streak trying to get the backyard garden self- sustaining, and keeps pressure washing the same areas. He's gone mad.
So it will be black/blue at the begining and whatever colour is next in the alphabet and so on, with yellow at the very end. If there is a pattern or design on it then whatever the primary colour is is where I put it in the order.
I know this sounds crazy, but I find it a lot easier when looking for clothes.
I have the weekend alone and I'm cleaning the house top to bottom. Windows, baseboards, rugs, everything. I've also washed all the baby stuff, put together the last of our IKEA stuff, washed throw pillow covers, and all of the laundry in the house. Next on my list is to hang decorations in the nursery, shelves in DS's room and get my vanity organized and hospital bag packed. If I have time, I'd like to do windows outside. I'm also working out with my trainer. I should be tired tonight!
I keep waiting for this nesting bug to hit me, but I'm too exhausted.
It's probably b/c we just cleaned/unpacked while moving, and I'm having to adjust to no longer working... but I'm running around each day finding something I think I need from the grocery store, the bank, a friends place, the mall, etc.
Certainly feeling stir crazy, with solid hard napping and snacking in between my impulsive bouts of energy. Lol
It makes me so anxious.
I started detail and deep cleaning the baseboards in our house, but had to stop because the crouching made it difficult to stand up two nights ago.
I thought the bending over thing during pregnancy was overkill by overprotective people, but it's really not!
But my actual nursery is a wreck with things from the shower strewn everywhere....... Why can't I get the urge to organize that?
I'm a pretty clean/OCD person to begin with, so I haven't had huge urges. Just things like clean the vent intakes, wash curtains that somehow have Cheetos finger prints on them!
ETA Spongebob is an exact representation of how I feel sometimes....so much to do so little time!
Started getting dressed, and noticed my denim jacket was wrinkly and needed to be ironed. This turned into me Gain-cleaner/magic eraser scrubbing the laundry room floor and grout, the outside of the washing machine and dryer, and finally ironing my shirt so I could leave.
Out damned spot! lol
