I need to move my family away from here, and out to the country where my family lives, for safety reasons. However, DH doesn’t want to move. So, I am forced to do it all myself. With God’s help, I can handle it, but my head is spinning, thinking of all I need to do to get the house ready for sale.
I need to:
1)Get the House Clean – This one isn’t far from done, actually.
2)Repair or Replace Broken or Worn Items
3)Paint Doors, Hall, Bathroom, & Decks
4)Remove Things Not Included with the House
5)Weed, Mulch, & Add Flowers to Garden
6)Pack Away Items to be Stored During Sale
I think that’s it. Of course, never having sold a house before, I’m completely ignorant of what it takes to sell one. However, my house was, and still is, the nicest one in the neighborhood (through no fault of mine), so I hope it will go well anyway.

I’m getting so close to being done! I am ecstatic! Every room in the house is “clean”. I still need to scrub woodwork, & vacuum the ceiling, etc., but it’s looking great. Whoot!
I don’t think it’ll take until the deadline to finish it. Then, I’ll be moving on to keeping it clean, while painting and such. With 2 little rambunctious boys underfoot, it’ll be quite a challenge. But we need to move, so I am highly motivated.

Doing well...

I finally got the boys’ room under control. I have several bags of clothes to give to Goodwill, but beyond that, it’s “done”. I still need to go through and pack away their toys into storage to put the house up for sale, but that doesn’t fall under the heading of cleaning. So, I feel pretty good about my progress.
The rest of the house is cluttery, but not bad. I believe this goal is do-able.
