I just spent over an hour cleaning our bedroom, in which the future fur hat cat knocked over a half-full glass of coke that was sitting on my night stand. All over the bed, my books, pill bottles, everything. What a *mess*.
I’m sipping a large glass of Emergen-C in the hopes that it will help me combat the dust and germs I’m stirring up, cleaning.
I made two glory hoops the other day. I need to run by WalMart and get some ribbon to finish them off. They’re delightful to dance with! Red and gold, like fire! When they’re done, I’ll post pics.
I’m slowly working my way through the book of Matthew. Got to 5:13, which says we’re the salt of the earth, but if the salt loses its saltiness, it’s no good. WOW. That’s powerful. How salty am I? What would make us un-salty? I asked Uncle Google, and this sermon popped up. It’s a good read: http://mcdonaldroad.org/sermons/00/0520.htm
I’ve come to the conclusion that there should be a single, all-inclusive kitchen gadget – a deep-fry/blender/food processor/grill/bread machine would be VERY nice.

In our house, it’s called a Wife
I’m about to deep fry a few things…
Been cleaning like a mad woman (I’ve got a BIG THING to pray about today and so I’m cleaning and praying.)
I’ve taken out six bags of trash so far, mostly old newspapers and bits of wrapping and junk mail. Hurt my back picking up the cat litter box. Bleah. Still have the kitchen to do. I’m hoping I’ll be able to vaccuum after the pain pill takes effect.
Good for you. I’ve turned the cupboard under the stairs into a pantry – putting up shelves through old masonry brick was a challenge yesterday – and have started taking stuff to the charity shop in my wheely-trolley.
Having a major sort-out of the entire house as I’m off work this week, and we haven’t seen the diningtable in weeks; it’s covered in cats and paperwork. I usually take the first week in January off for decluttering and deepcleaning, and it’s too cold for gardening.
Tomorrow is scrubbing the entire kitchen now that I’ve pretty much emptied the cupboards, and listing all the food contents in the house on a spreadsheet for meal-planning. Next will be tidying, dusting and vacuuming throughout, evicting spiders as I go, steamcleaning the shower, ironing (swear), re-arranging the study with some of my Christian books, and sorting through all my clothes and books for the charity shop. Then I can return to work on Monday with some semblance of control.
Hey Kathi – just wanted to let you know that I do want to read more of what you have to say so you must be still salty
