Clean Sweep :)



{Warning: According to Grant this post will bore you to death, like he's an authority on housework :)}

Much to the great annoyance of my family, I've been on a cleaning, organizing, de-junking kick the last week or so....

First it was our yard....

Monday came with bright sunshine and 3 teenagers at home (at the same time) , WOW...That never happens anymore.... so at the unrighteous hour of 8:30 am, I rousted our brood out of bed......."It's Clean Up the Yard Day!!!!" {They've been more willing to go to a fifth Sunday meeting on food storage :)} Sometimes being the mom is AWESOME, and their defiant moans and groans were met with my annoying over the top cheerfulness :)

We cleaned out and organized the shed, cleaned out under the deck, scrubbed the deck, cleaned off the drive way, took ten bags to the thrift store and took two loads to the dump. And there was never a mutiny, weird.

It felt awesome!!!!

The next day I tacked the mountain of paperwork on top of my filing cabinet and actually found all of my IRS documents, my marriage certificate and no unpaid bills...even better :)

I realized the our overflowing deep freeze, had iced up to the point the lid no longer shut tight....so I unloaded it and then took a sledge hammer to the ice...which was way more therapeutic than it should have been....I even found a package of Eggos the kids had missed {no I didn't share}. And now its all back in and organized, with enough room for a months worth of crock pot freezer meals...NOT, like that will ever happen ;) Its ice cream and more Eggos.

I even caught up on all the laundry...well almost.

Yay me.

But seriously I love my clean and organized house :) Too bad my offspring and Superman don't share in my neuroses.
