The garden is too wet, and now frozen. I think if I even get the last tomato stakes out, I'll be happy.
I woke up to a chilly 21°F this morning.
Yesterday, after a few chores, I went to drag out Christmas tree #4. The day ended up with an all day date with this:
First, I noticed the study chair was needing a good cleaning (on my way to open cubbie to get the tree), so I thought I'd get two things done - the chair, then my dresser top, to where the ceramic tree would go.
I flipped the chair upside down and saw spider webs (Yikes!) so off I went to find the vacuum cleaner. I ended up cleaning the entire desk, cubbie door, chair and my dresser top. I then proceeded to pull drawers out and wipe them down and the inside of the dresser, which led me to more cleaning, and on and on it went.
However, Christmas tree #4 was put in place. Whew! I had to text Hubby that I needed another pair of rubber gloves. I need them for today's continued wood work cleaning.
While all that was going on, I almost forgot I had bread rising.
Yikes. Not the best load, but a loaf. The photo makes it look good, but it's lopsided, ha ha! I really need to find a good whole wheat bread recipe.
Another yikes - almost forgot to take the dogs out. "Grad" daughter is home most mornings and she had an 8 hour work day.
Dusting was done, carpets swept, my dresser cleaned off. Another spider trap is in place.
Do you ever have to spend a day putting away the "didn't put it aways?" You know, those items you just put down and tell yourself you'll put it away another time? I have been diligent in keeping those areas clean, so it only took a few minutes to clean that up.
If I had a plan for yesterday, it would have failed for sure, but I got much of my deep cleaning done. I have more to clean. Much more. I'm making a list for the girls now.
