Clean house = Happy home!

Lately I've been lacking motivation. Lets face it, so many changes, inconsistent schedules, inconsistent income, new pets, sick pets, pregnancy, hormones, new marriage, etc etc etc...how would anyone keep their home clean under those circumstances. Considering I can be a bit O.C.D. about things having a place and putting and finding them in their place--I am holding up well.

Today I finally tacked a few things I've been piling in corners. Lots of clean folded clothes finally found their new homes in my re-organized dresser and closet. All the windows and mirrors have now been wiped down, oh yeah, and I dusted. Bobby cleaned the kitchen, started a roast, made lunch and ice tea and vacuumed the carpet in the house. Elvis' cage is gleaming (which makes her "woo hoo" over and over) and the things that are left to complete have been compartmentalized for easy access later.

I'm breathing easy and feeling great and the weekend has just started. I think I might even be able to relax this weekend. Get to a few art projects and work on Oliver's baby book (which I'm doing digitally). I'm thinking about making a painting, perhaps finishing my never-ending collage.

This evening I spent time with good friends Sara and Katie. They brought a Eddie (the bird) for Elvis, Abby the lab for Sasha, and a Jayhawk baby onesie--it doesn't get any better than that. If only I could get my husband to go on a walk with me.

On the baby end, I am really uncomfortable. The next couple months are going to drag as I get bigger and more uncomfortable. This horrible heat has been wiping me out so I'm glad today is cooler. I'm ready to meet this kid, for more reasons than one, but just to not be pregnant--sounds good to me.

Happy Saturday--Happy day--Life is good.
