cleaning
What A Novel Idea
So, I wrote last week about cleaning our kitchen and surprisingly it has stayed clean all week! YAY!
May sound trivial, but is a huge feat for us. Hopefully this will continue. It’s so nice to have the kitchen clean and I’ve really been keeping up with it…cleaning as I do things, putting things away. I really hope it never gets to how it was before. I’m really going to try to make sure we don’t go to that dark place again. No reason for it at all!
This weekend I am cleaning my office, which I’ve been calling the hoarder room all week. It is a mess. Plain and simple. No other description necessary. I should post before and after photos but I am so embarrassed at the state of it.
But starting tomorrow, I will begin to clean it. I really don’t have much else to do this weekend, thank God. Just gonna clean this room and veg with the hubbs and the zoo.
If the weather holds out, we plan on giving the Puppa a bath as well. Should be fun! LOL He also has some mats on his undercarriage that need to be taken care of. So does the Miss. Maybe we’ll get to those too.
But back to the kitchen. what a difference. I can cook, I don’t have to balance and move things around to make room on the counter to prepare and make dinner/lunch/whatever. Tomorrow morning, I can wake up and have some cereal and use a clean spoon from the drawer and a clean bowl and not have to wash them!
Now, we just have to keep it up!
New Blog Design Coming!
I found the cutest kit today in my Google Reader! It’s called “Very Own World” and is a hand-painted kit by Irene Alexeeva. I love her kits! I have a few of them.
I got it at After Five Designs. I’ll have to add their button to my sidebar, I’ve shopped there a few times this month…a couple of my favorite artists have moved there.
I also went to Gorjuss and found a little cutie to add to my blog header! I just ♥ her work! I want to get prints and hang them in my house….one day!
Anyway, I will be hopefully working on this today in between doing the dishes (UGH!) and cleaning the computer room…which I actually may save until tomorrow since the kitchen will take for.ever! I’m actually excited to get started! I need to find a little pear too that I can add. I think I have another Irene Alexeeva kit with a pear in it. Oh, and I have one with little pigs too…hmm…
Ok, gotta feed the dogs and get the iPod going to I can Jam out while I clean. P!nk, Paramore and Eminem are my kitchen cleaning jams of choice lol
GHI Review and More
Well GHI was not all that great last night. I found the first one to be a little boring and barely watched it. The second location was beautiful and I really thought the place was haunted. I’m not the ghost hunter though! I actually thought that the rerun of GH that was on before GHI came on was better than the new episode of GHI. I hope they get better. The previews of next week’s show looked good, so we’ll see how that goes. Of course I will still watch, but it’s not as good as I expected.
Made a new page tonight of my neice. She’s in Australia right now and she’s grown so much in a year!! My SIL sent me this picture and it’s one of my absolute favorites!!

My husband and I also have a lot of errand type things to do tomorrow. And I need to clean the house because my sister is coming over on Saturday. We’re going to do her invitations and things for her wedding. They should be cool and omg doing them on the computer allows you to design them yourself and is cheaper in the long run!
Oooh found the new Project Runway on tv! Got to run and watchie!!
