See, you didn't really need to spend your vacation grading papers. The world did not end.
And I'm sure I didn't give you that book. I would have given you a book like "Daily complaints of highly dysfunctional whackjobs" or something like that.
I cleared off the side table next to my chair in the living room. The one I watch TV in. I even waxed it. I've also started to rearrange my kitchen cabinets. I emptied half of the spice cupboard as I'm going to move some of the baking stuff in there; sprinkles, baking chocolate, molasses, etc. I tossed some really old stuff. And I took half of the stuff out of the cabinet above the refrigerator and moved some stuff from the sideboard up there. Tomorrow I'll be moving the mixer attachments from the other cupboards down to the sideboard where I keep the mixer and bowls. I'll toss some more really old stuff, then see where I am.
I made four of the five voting "bottles" for the CA young reader medal books. One to go. I have to finish one last liter bottle of soda. No problem. I'm cutting off the tops, rinsing them off, then taping laminated book covers around them so the kids can vote by dropping glass pebbles in them.
I'm not going to accomplish everything. But I think I can get sort through all of the VHS tapes in the living room, finish the kitchen and bathroom and maybe make a path in my bedroom to the closet. One where I don't have to step over things. A bonus is if I get the cedar chest with the dog toys over under the window in the foyer.
I'm going grocery shopping tomorrow, then I'm eating the rest of my hoppin' john and then I'm going to....cook. Spinach Feta quiche I think. Then I'm going to run the dishwasher. And maybe do laundry.
You are such a bad influence on me. Before you know it my house will be as clean as yours.
What a great day.
