IT's ON!!
I have challenged Debi to a room cleaning dual. I hope she has accepted cause she really hasn't said, one way or another yet. I personally think she is scared I will whip her butt!
So, here are the rules. We have until August 25th, that is when she goes back to school. We can only spend 15 minutes a day, no extra time. The one who has their room most in order and clean by then gets a free meal off the other one. We started yesterday and I am really amazed at what you can get done in 15 minutes. Because of things going on on Saturday, I will have to do 2 sessions today so that I can keep up. Although I don't think it will be a problem, cause I am going to win anyway.
If I actually get the room done I will post before and after pictures. It is really bad and I don't want you all to see it if it doesn't get done. This should be interesting.
On a more fun note - I saw, for the first time in my own yard, a hummingbird. I was ecstatic! I only saw it for a second and out of the corner of my eye - but it was there. I bought a hummingbird feeder earlier in the summer and just put it up the other day after I saw the bird. I hope to get the yard filled with things to attract them so that they will keep coming back. We saw a bunch when we went on our retreat at The Ark in Berea and I have been hoping to get more landscaping in to attract them. Bit by bit, it will get done.
I guess that is all for today, I think I am going to go sit on the deck and watch the birds.
