One Room Challenge: Wk 3, Bedroom and Ensuite- Timeline & To-Do List
It’s Week 3 of the ORC, and I’m a bit of a mess :/ Over the weekend we went to Oregon’s Wildlife Safari because our gift certificates are expiring,, then my 5yo got a cold, then he shared it with me and his big bro, all while my husband was working out of town for the week... Also, it was only a 3-day school week because of teacher conferences. #momlife So, how can I still make progress in a day without the energy to move about? Plan out my timeline & to-do list. I have to say, all of that critical thinking while being a Sudafed head is not ideal?, but it still needs to happen. It’s already the end of Week 3- YIKES!
