1. the cellos
Did I ever tell you about the cellos? When I was with blackbird driving around Tuvalu (yeah, I know, lucky!) she spied mini cellos in a garbage can. Now, did we leave them in the garbage can to rot sadly? Nope, I took them home. To do what? An art project, maybe collage, maybe sharpie. I'm not so sure. They are currently untouched.
2. laundry
Always a project. Always procrastinated.
3. deck
In my free time (get that, it was a joke) my father is paying me to paint the deck on a rental property we have. Two colors. Two coats. This is hard work and happens to be done most successfully in the heat of the day. Will I finish by July 1st when the new tenant moves in? Only time will tell.
4. polish toe nails
Needed in a big way. Probably should wait until the deck is done because of the huge amount paint that ends up all over me (feet included). Now what color? I'm thinking a bright classic red.
5. quilt
So one of the mothers whose children I watch (she's got two girls) had a bunch of beautiful fabric samples and offered some to me. Now, I'm not really a sower but the fabric was just so interesting, classic and pretty that I just had to take a bunch. So first I must learn how to sew a quilt and then actually do it, this will take a while.
6. graduate school
I ordered a book on the topic, haven't even opened it. Researched? Nope. GRE studying? Nope. You could say I'm currently unprepared. This is not good...
7. showering
Can it count as a project cause I need to do it really bad? The fact that I need to shave AND get the paint out of my hair kinda proves the project aspect of the situation.
8. thesis
Topic? Nope. Adviser? Nope. In trouble? Yes.
9. clean apartment
Needs to be done SO bad. The boy has been up there for about a month pretty much by himself and lets just say that he isn't the neatest and cleanest. In preparation for my visit this weekend he is going to tidy up bit but it needs a good wash the floor/scrub the tub Alice clean. Oh, and his mom is coming on Sunday for the first time. It's going to have to sparkle! Oh, and it will...

His mom is coming!! That is so scary. Trust me - all those other projects need to be back burnered. You need to scrub that tub. Oh - and maybe shave because she won't want to kiss you if you have a beard.
Between the paint in your hair, the toes and the apartment? I'd say you have a rough 48 hours ahead of you.
Good luck my friend.
