Edit: I’d like to do a quick update to see how much of my list I actually got done. The following week and a half has been ridiculously insane and hectic in my house so I am just now sitting down at my computer! I actually did better than I thought.
I’m not sure how other people are when they prepare for guests, but I go a little insane. Some may even say a lot insane, but I don’t really know what normal is.
I’ve already got the guest bedroom ready with fresh sheets, so it looks as nice as it can. Their bathroom is clean too. They are coming to stay and watch my children while I am gone for the weekend, so I am extra appreciative and trying to make up for the fact that I won’t be around to host them.
So, here are my To-Dos for today:
Make Dining Room TableMake Kitchen TableClean up OfficeVacuum Daughter #1 RoomClean out Car/VacuumGet Oil ChangeMake Tree SkirtsWrap PresentsWrap PicturesMake Christmas CrackPackShower- Decorate Outside Tree
Finish Outside Lights- Clean my bathroom – did not get to finish this
Wash my SheetsWash Daughter 1 SheetsMake Banana BreadClean out fridgeGive dog a bathWork on Website- Straighten Daughter #2 and #3 Drawers
Run to storePick up kids from school
As I write this post, I’m waiting for my car to finish the oil change, so at least I’m wrapping that up. I almost never get one of these lists completed, but I do try my best.
What does your guest prep list look like? Also, what am I forgetting to do???
