Time for Chores


I have spent such a great amount of time working on wedding details that I have fully neglected my home to the point of being embarrassed around my own family.  So today I am spending a good deal of time cleaning.  


When I was growing up my Mom always set aside one day a week to clean house.  Try as I may, I just can't discipline myself to do it.  I wait until I can't stand it any longer and then I frantically clean.  My trick is to keep the house free of clutter, it looks clean that way.


I know I just make more work for myself.  Once the cleaning is done, I'm so pleased with the way everything looks that I tell myself I'll do it again next week, that it won't be so much work, but then I'm back at my sewing machine forgetting all about the little talk I had with myself.  I hope that you are doing something fun today, instead of cleaning!

Joyfully,
