Thank you for the reply. I have been working hard around my home, I am still getting settled and there are many boxes in the garage waiting for me. Plus there is the lawn and flower beds. We are having a spell of hot weather, just when I decided to seed some bare spots!!! So I am watering morn and night ( and noonish if I come home for lunch)
This was the first week in a loooong time that I felt motivated and focused at work. There is much to do to catch up.
On Thursday evening I finally got my washer and dryer hooked up, after living in the house 3 weeks. I was the "midnight plumber" who, being sick and tired of the laundrymat, decided to see what it would take to hook up. I was so proud of myself for getting it leveled connected. I was doing laundry by 1 a.m. The next morning I hung it all out on the line. I have not been able to do that for 30 years. The clothes smelled so fresh when I brought them in.
I read one of your posts about Flylady.com. Did you know that she feels that it is the perfectionist type person who usually ends up with the clutter "issues". I thought that was very interesting. I makes me feel better to think of myself as a perfectionist. (Looking at the dust bunnies I raise under my sofa and beds, one would never guess. ) I am trying the polished kitchen sink thing and, for me, it is a good start at keeping the kitchen clean.
My temptation is always the yard or the garden. For some reason, although the labor can be dirty and tiring, it does not seem like work to me. I finally got me vegetable garden planted--all three tomato plants . I do not have much full sun because of the trees so I only have room for one very short row of vegetables.
