you know you're nesting when...

[Cassius2]

i am definitely an early nester this time around...with DD1 i left it all too late and never totally recovered lol!

but for me, i know i am nesting when:

* i find myself at 10.30pm at night with a wet chux in my hand on all fours cleaning the skirting boards
* cleaning the light switches (*snap* Dansta!!)
* cleaning the walls and doors...you wouldnt believe the grime that accumulates around the handles....especially if they are at toddler height lol!
* waking up on the verge of tears in the middle of the night 'cause the linen cupboard is not how you like it and you know that it is too late/crazy to get up and fix it.

ok, so that's been my crazy nesting for the last 2 weeks...

SNAP!

I know I am nesting when I throw stuff out - the op shop loves me in my last trimester....

when you have to clean the tops of the ceiling fan blades before turning them on.
when every piece of good crystal/glass that you own is sitting on towels in the laundry after you've had to clean it - even though it isn't going to be used for goodness knows how long

(FWIW I always clean my lightswitches and walls)

i'm glad im not the only one whose "clucked it" in DH's words

he told me last night PIL where comming over and the house needed to be cleaned. ...so i did

- Dj's bed sheets
-all of our dirty clothes
- the dishes
( All of them are normal..ish)
then i went around with an Enjo thingy i found and cleaned
- The walls
-Skirting boards in the kitchen
-the kitchen cupboard doors
- the fridge doors
-re-stacked our chest freezer
-wiped down our Kettle and toaster (i never knew toasters got soo dirty!)
-and found more light switches and walls near them to clean as well.

I'll go you one more on the mopping.

Washing all the floors of my house on my hands and knees, because I coulnd't possibly use to mop as I'd be too far from the floor, not be able to see all the dirt properly, and might 'miss' a spot.

My fish tanks have never EVER been so clean. I've been cleaning them all (all for of them) about every other day, which includes at least a 1/4 - 1/2 water change......I might mention my tanks aren't particularly small. The theory is I might go into labour, and it could be a while (read this as more then 1 week) before I am able to clean them so I have to make sure they've been done recently so my fish don't live in squalor (no one said a pregnant woman's mind is logical)

I cleaned out all my cupboards washed down the shelves re-washed everything in them, then went to do it all again one week later (DH stopped me....as in rediverted my energy by mentioning there was some dust on the fans which might be more pressing then the no dirt on the perfectly clean dishes)

when you attack DHs wardrobe and throw out half of his clothes in an attempt to "clean up" hehe

quiet simply for me i know i am nesting when i actually want to/need to clean something
