Rare day.....

Today was a rare day ... too tired to be creative (late night last night) so I decided to clean! Yes, clean, put away, tidy up, sort and even threw a bit away.

For those who don't know me well, this is a rarity. My DH told people to just stay away from me and not interrupt ... he didn't know how long it would last but he liked it.

I tried earlier in the summer to clean for 15 minutes every morning ... that helped for a while ... but August was a whirl wind of activity and the piles we bothering even me.

Hopefully, this "urge to purge" will last through my next task ... the storage closet... if you don't hear from me in the next few days ... send in the rescue squad.

  1. Hey Teri,

    It happens to all of us....me, usually twice a year or if I am so fuming mad I need to destroy something! LOL!
    Seriously...you'll end up doing more work after it's done. That's my pattern! GO GIRL!

  2. Good luck with the cleaning. I find it hard to do anything creative unless the house is clean. I feel like I can't have fun until I clean....(thats why I have spurts of creativity)
