Hubby has 9 days of leave of needs to use by the end of March and is taking next week to paint the playroom and we are putting in new carpet. Was at home depot today picking up paint chips. Going for a shade of yellow I guess. Spent last week looking at daycare setups and seeing how the wall colour effected me and was surprised by what I liked and didn't like. Leaning towards something called "pale daffodil".

But of course to paint it means remove all the decorations, shelving which I have an entire wall of and toys out of the space so the carpet can come up. I will then be starting over to put it all back and want to change things while I have the chance just working with what I have already so there are no extra costs.

But I hear you on the reorganizing urge and no I am not nesting either - not even possible at my age. Usually at this point in the winter we are all dragging ourselves around bordering on the desire to hibernate with the bears for a bit but this year yes it seems like we are skipping and going directly into spring. Maybe if we start sooner we might actually get it done this spring instead of it dragging out to the summer.
