Major problem, simple solution!

Oh wow, what a day I had yesterday, oh boy was I nesting. I woke up, from a very sleepless night, and decied I wanted to organize my closets and some draws, and place them in containers. I took everything out and made piles for each container, I needed about 10 containers in all different sizes. I had it all written down on paper,  each pile had a name, hats, belts etc. and what kind of organizing item it needed. I get to the store feeling all confident how I have everything under control. I found good containers that were even on sale, and nice fabric ones for the front closet. I was also looking for a simple book self to place all my albums on, but I had a very specific measurements. I searched for a while but I couldn't find any that fit the measurements, so I gave up and I didn't get any. 

After spending about two hours in the store, I paid for my stuff and got home all excited to start putting everything away. The view when walking in was a disaster, things were fling every where, it all needed to be put back away. So far sounds good right? I take out my fabric buckets and filled it back up and brought it to the closet. But that's when I started to burst out in to tears, the buckets I bought were to big and didn't fit on the shelf. I was so disappointed (probably just extremely over tired) I worked so hard in the store, and to come home and find out it was all a waste was devastating. 

I called my husband in a panic, crying my eyes out how the dumb buckets don't fit. He must have thought I was insane, but I had never gotten so mad over something so simple before, so he knew it must have really bothered me. He said he'll come home right away, comforted that he'll come and help me calm down, I took the containers to do the other closet. Filling them up was a breeze everything fit perfectly, It was making me feel less as bad about the other closet. 

Everything was in container and now it was time to cover them, but the tears came again and even harder this time. For some odd reason I left half the coveres in the store that I needed and the other half was completely missed size. I have no idea how that happened, I was so so so upset, (or really really over tired) how can I forget to take covers. I called my husband again, crying even harder this time, and he said he'll be home in two min and we will go straight back to the store. 

He gets home assesses my mess, and discovers something so genius. The fabric buckets may have not fit on the bottom shelf, but they sure fit on the top one, problem solved there. I felt kinda dumb that there was such a simple salution to want seemed like such hassle to me. But I felt very greatfull for having him figure that out, but we still had the cover mess to figure out.

We went back to the store got all the right covers needed, and he even found a sulation to my book shelf problem and we were able to get one of those as well. I still am confused to how I managed to mess up something so simple, who knew buying containers were so difficult. 

My husband had a engagement party last night, so he said he'll have to build the shelfs another time.
I was to determined to get everything done, I couldn't wait till everything was all cleaned up. So I built the whole bookshelf myself, put it into place and filled the shelf up. My husband had a nice surprise when he came home, he was confused how I was able to built it, he thought he would have even had a hard time doing it. But don't mess with a nesting pregnant lady, we can do anything our mind is set to, except maybe the real simple stuff, like putting the buckets on a different shelf. 

I was proud of myself at the end of night of how much I was able to get done in one day. My mistakes just made it a better store and I feel like I got even more done because they were all fixed by the time the day was over, thanx to my dear husband of course. I look back now and I think it's kinds funny how much I really cried over something like this. I AM SO PREGO!!
