Cleaning, True Blood-ing, and Wedding-ing

I feel like I have so many things to do that I don't even know where to start. I have at least two to-do lists in my purse, another to-do list in another purse, multiple to-do lists in my THREE wedding notebooks (one's a binder, one's a spiral notebook, and one is a small binder that I can fit in my purse), a to-do list next to my bed (as soon as I lay down at night, I think of a million things I need to do), a grocery list with a to-do list on the back in the kitchen, and a to-do list in progress on the coffee table in front of me. I'm not complaining...I adore lists, but I just don't want to forget ANYTHING. My ADHD brain can only keep so many things in it at one time.

Right now I am cleaning out and cleaning up. I went through our closet and got rid of anything I haven't worn in the last year...I thought about going through Adam's t-shirts, but I don't dare risk getting rid of that jersey from high school that has sentimental meaning. Last weekend I put all of his socks in a bin and held them up one by one...a thrilling game of "keep or toss." He played along for the dress socks, and I attempted to clean out the white socks myself. I've already tackled the white t-shirts. With wedding gifts and guests coming in to the house this spring, it was time to make a little space.

The ladies at my work have gotten me into the TV series True Blood. Looove it. I'll admit that I turn my head during the excessively gory scenes, but I'm addicted. I'm almost done with the second season, but I'm trying to stretch it out until the third season comes out May 31st (yup, looked it up) because I watch episodes while I clean and de-clutter. This involves lots of "rewinding," but I'm ok with that.

Finally, it is wedding everything. Everything is wedding. My wedding binder is on the coffee table, we have shower gifts on almost every surface, and our guest room is officially the "wedding room" (I've stopped apologizing for that). 12 weeks to go, and we have things going on every weekend from now until then. (Including two weddings to attend!!)

Tomorrow I am volunteering at a St. Baldrick's event with the ladies from work. I am looking forward to it, but I guess I'll have to turn off "Bethenny" and get to work addressing invitations and vacuuming.

I'm just soaking it all in and enjoying every minute of it.
