A little update
I just thought I would give you an update on what got done yesterday. We, Meaghan, Conor, McKenzie and Myself, got the bathroom picked up, the hallway picked up, still have to clean the walls and vacuum again. I vacuumed the air intake and the ceiling fan. Also got all the dust from the walls that the ceiling fan caused. The girls worked on their room and Con on his and I started cleaning and organizing the guest room. I also vacuumed the baseboards and around the perimeter of the carpet. I had found the attachments to the good sweeper and then they were gone yesterday, so I improvised and taped the dusting attachment from the other sweeper to the good one. Funny, huh? We worked until lunch time, 12:50 or so and then we ate lunch and that was all I got done. It is a big start but I figure it will take the rest of this week to get all of upstairs done.
Have you all ever seen Clean Sweep on the Learning Channel? I was ready to email and beg then to come help me. Or Rally Round the House? I like that one too. I guess I have little chance of that but I was desperate. So, me and the kids will get it done. I hope to take all of next week and get my room done. It will take that long. I will get it done, though. If I have to be a demon from hell it will get done! I have been thinking of just saving up a little money after Christmas and paying someone to come finish this wall in the back yard for me. I will never get to it and it looks like Sanford and Son in my back yard. Embarassing, really. With all the grass from the summer gone and the cinderblocks stacked back there and crap all over the deck, I am surprised we haven't gotten some horrible letter from a neighbor or something. I just want it done.
I was thinking, again, about how I only write about the everyday kind of stuff on here. And how others seem to have something "Spiritual" to say. Well, don't know what to think about that at the moment, it just entered my head. Sometimes I feel lame about it and other times I really don't care. I guess that is normal. Being spritual is a normal everyday occurance and sometimes I just don't "think" about it, it just happens. It is interesting to see some traditional churches on cable access and I am so glad to be removed from that show. I don't think I need to be doing something to make the spirit come on me. I think it is there all the time and I don't need a special occasion to have it manifest. I just does, and not in some big showy way. Does that make sense?
Well, the day is almost upon me and I have some cleaning to do. I will keep you posted on my progress and hopefully that will keep me accountable.
