Accomplishment

After a restful weekend, I got motivated last evening to start some cleaning and organizing projects around the house.  Some of my more domestic responsibilities seem to have been put on hold temporarily while my energies were needed elsewhere, but today as I write this, I feel so....accomplished!  I got everything crossed off my "to do" list.

My house smells like bleach, Endust, and Lysol wipes.  That's fine by me.  It feels fresh and clean!  I sound like an advertisement, don't I?

But back to my clean house.  All the laundry is put away, the fish tank got cleaned, we got every subject in school done today, and everyone is actually happy and content at this late afternoon hour.

Dinner is cooking on the stove, Cody knows his Awana verses for tonight, and both the boys are playing contentedly as I type this.

Why can't EVERY day be just like this?

Oh yeah.  It's called LIFE!

I'll just enjoy it while it lasts....

It feels good to get the clutter out, doesn't it! I have a lot to do this week around here - maybe i'll get motivated tomorrow!!!

Yeah! I love to have a list that has been fully crossed off! I also love the smell of a clean house! Enjoy it!

Mmmm . . . I can smell the Pinesol from here. Or maybe it's the pieces of insulation floating down from above through the hole in my living room ceiling that's affecting my sniffer.

Crud.

At this time in my life, a clean house is worthy of a full page newspaper cngrats! So you deserve a billboard ad :) Love ya!
