Lots of work

I'm sure you all know that moving is lots of work. I spent most of the day cleaning, priming and making trips to Lowe's/Home Depot.
First thing I did was take a picture of the front of the house

While I waited for the carpet cleaner guy I took out a couple (hundred) thumbtacks and staples out the walls in Cali's new bedroom.

While our carpets were being cleaned I cleaned the kitchen cabinets! As most of you know clutter and I are BFFs, but I do not like living in other people's germs so scrubbed fried fish smell out of the cabinets. I took me 2 hours to clean the cabinets. I think I got most of the fish smell out. I left the cabinets open to air out.

I have learned a little about the family that used to live there. They had a boy and a girl. The boys names is written on one of the walls in the blue bedroom (can't remember his name now) and the girl's name was on the door, but was removed when they were replacing all the missing fixtures. The girl was probably between 11 and 15 because only someone that age would have that many holes in the wall. The boy was the youngest because he had the smaller room. I also learned where they kept their coffee pot because when I wiped the walls the smell of coffee was very potent in a particular area.
After I cleaned the kitchen I took a break to hang out with my little girl. When she went down for a nap I went back to the house to prime Cali's room. It took FOREVER and I'm still not done. I ran out of primer and I needed a latter, so I stopped for the day. I did go buy more primer and a ladder. Oh yeah this is getting expensive.
After dinner I gave Cali a bath and put her to bed, but not before we read.
This is her reading corner, we read almost every night.

No I don't make her sit in the corner before bed, that's where she likes to sit.
Her favorite book right now is Hop on Pop, I have to read it every night.
