I'm here!

Sorry, I've been MIA the past few days. Our internet has been down (again). Gotta love our local service! But I will say, without the internet I sure get alot done!


I have spring cleaning fever- big time! Remember last Sunday? We spent the day demolishing our lovely rock sculpture and parquet floor bar in the basement readying the big family room for reconstruction. Well, this Sunday we finished some cleaning out and then removed the fabulous carpet and padding. Yuck!! I can't believe we have been playing, sitting and even laying around on that stuff!! Of course, we had it all cleaned when we moved in and I have cleaned it since, but nothing cleans deep, deep down. Evidently there was a water leak before we moved in because the carpet stripping was so damaged and, dare I say, black with yuck. Eeewww!


Today, we spent 6 hours in the girls' bedroom. Our 2 youngest share and love to save papers. All papers, blank, written on, wadded up...you name it. They were all in their room! Along with cheap, gumball machine-type toys, miscellaneous socks, stickers...you get the point. Finally, our day was almost gone and their room was clean. I have a huge bag of trash and extra large pile for our yard sale.


It was a productive day to say the least. Tomorrow....the laundry room and bathrooms- joy!

In Him,

E
