I’m putting in a request for an early Christmas/birthday/Valentine’s/any other holiday for a year or so present… a dishwasher. I’m hitting new levels of lazy, and cooking more than ever, and my hubby has wanted me to get one for quite awhile, so I think I’m giving in. I’m looking for some suggestions of brands that work well, but also don’t cost an arm and a leg. Time to do some comparison shopping, and rip out a cabinet too.

Well One Closet is Sorta Clean
Yesterday I took the kiddos upstairs early, and I dove into a cleaning/organizing project. I have 4 closets that need cleaned/switched/organized, so I asked Thade what was the easiest one to start on… He said his, of course. I ran back downstairs, and got a few boxes, and started the cleaning project of the boy’s room.
A few hours later, and 6 boxes of clothing cleaned out of there too, and the boy’s closet is looking pretty good. I still need to sort through and categorize the bins of clothing that I have left, and I found enough clothing for them for the Fall and Winter season. I have an extra 2 loads of laundry to wash, but I’m all set for the cooler weather. Getting a little more mileage out of last year’s wardrobe helps out a bit too.
Maybe today I’ll start on another closet upstairs…
Boxes, Boxes Everywhere
I had my hubby bring home about a dozen boxes today. We aren’t moving, we are just organizing. I have a lot of work to do upstairs, and James wants to have a Garage Sale soon. I hope to get the office cleaned out, and closets switched too. Now if I can just come up with the energy to do it. So far the boxes make a really neat train for Dylan, but no actual cleaning has taken place.
Getting The House In Order
This week is shaping up to be a busy one that is filled with hostessing duties. This week I’m hosting our local MOPS Steering Team meeting, and I’ll also be hosting the 4th of July BBQ. I’ve got a few yummy meals planned for the events too. First thing first though, I’ve got to get the house in order and cleaned for company.
I’m taking the downstairs room by room, and so far I’ve already got the office cleaned and ready. Today I’m getting the table cloth cleaned, and working on the dining room, and a little bit of the kitchen too.
Time to get to it!
All the Dirty Laundry
I have no idea how this happens, but somehow the dirty laundry has piled up (again). I think I’ve got about 5 loads to do, and I need to wash the kiddos bedding too. Looks like it is going to be laundry day at Nico’s house today.Oh yeah, dishes too, as soon as Dylan takes a much needed nap.
How has your weekend been? Are you catching up on housework too?
