This place is a MESS

It's Tuesday night, and I should be cleaning. I mean I really, really should be cleaning. And I definitely should not be sitting at my computer writing a blog post. The Professor is coming home tomorrow night (from a conference) and this place is a mess. A mess, I tell you. Sunday night (TWO nights ago) I began pulling out our warmer clothes- sweaters, gloves, hats- and putting them in boxes. But I never finished putting them away. So there are clothes and storage boxes everywhere. The wood floors need to be vacuumed and swept. The dishes need to be done. But, alas, I am on the computer typing away. Hitting refresh here every chance I get. Hoping/praying/wishing for the best.

Also, hoping for the best for my sweet homie. Homie is away from home for the first time since being in the hospital. He's away for a conference and had to present a paper today. From what I've heard, ALL went well, he did an amazing job, and everyone is elated with his progress. I knew he would, but he was so nervous about it, it made me slightly nervous too. And I cannot wait to see him tomorrow. It feels like it's been SO long, yet it's only been a few days. The house is so quiet, it feels strange. I don't even remember the last time I was alone (oh yes, it was when Homie was in the hospital, in OCTOBER).

Everything else is going really well. I'm really looking forward to Spring, and all of the fun activities it brings. Hoping for nice weather this weekend, as it is the Bean's birthday, and we have big plans. She turns the big 1-1. It's hard to believe, and of course, it's hitting Homie hard. I think he can't believe how grown up she is these days :). But thank goodness, she is a really good kid!! :)

Well, I am off to clean. There is so much to be done, wish me luck. I know I will get into it, lose track of time, and forget to go to bed! Also don't forget about Stellan- we're all hoping for the best!
