Choosing my bedroom closet was probably not the best are to clean today. My craft supplies are kept in there. I keep finding craft ideas or craft projects I would like to make or do. I have a feeling this will take me about a week to do it right. And then there are the clothes.
Now I not only have a wish list on my computer desktop, but an on-going craft project list. Mom's get bored too, so I guess you could call it my "rainy day" fun list.
I feel guilty when I write and don't clean. My goal is to have order before Thanksgiving. Giving myself a long challenge and a deadline, I feel it will get done.
Happy Spring Cleaning! You feel so much better when you have it done, and keep it that way! Phew!

Foxy Loxy is back ~ Close call for one of our dogs
Well, I decided to take the dogs outside, sit in a lawn chair, and soak up the sun - in my slippers. Bad move. I heard it but I didn't know what it was. One of our dogs kept sniffing the air so I was keeping a close eye on him.
Then, all of the sudden they darted and I screamed until my throat hurt, and chased after them through mud, leaves, and snow. One of our dogs bolted across the 2 lane highway and would not come back. Thank goodness there was no traffic was passing. And then I saw him. A small animal running across the empty field.
To make sure of what it was, I googled the sound of a fox. The dogs went crazy! And yes, it was the fox. He's back. Good thing the chickens are still in their pen. Phew!
That was a bit scary for me too. I thought our dog would not come back and he just stood there in the road. Now I have a headache and dirty slippers. I guess I better have running shoes on the next time I take them out, and maybe even take a quick walk around.
