Cleaning Fairy



The cleaning fairy was at my house today. I went to work and came home to a clean house.  It was rather like having elves here today. I've been fighting a losing battle with getting the house clean. It just wasn't all getting done on the weekend. I'd do a bit and then decide to answer  the call from my "sewing machine".  It's hard to believe that this is my house with everything done. I'll have to cut back my expenses in some area, but we're keeping Renee, our cleaning fairy for a bit. This is my part to stimulate the economy.

A Dirty House... Where No One is Cleaning

I love storytime. It's one of my favorite parts of my job. I have read aloud The Napping House at least one hundred times (ok, maybe thirty)   The line "a napping house where everyone is sleeping" repeats throughout the book.  Today, the entire family was cleaning and doing yardwork. Goodness gracious! Both the house and our yard are in terrible shape. As I was cleaning,  the line "a dirty house where no one is cleaning" kept going through my mind. The house is a bit better now. I've earned a break. I'm heading to my sewing room to work on Step 2 of Orange Crush. I'm a bit behind. Step 4 was posted this week. I'll bring my Ipod and listen to These High Green Hills and sew. My reward for "laundry and latrines." - my job  in an all-male household :)
