A day for me

Well..I am sure you all want to know what I did on my day off.  I did all the things that keep me sane.

I did laundry. I cleaned the bathroom from top to bottom.  I washed some windows..oh they are sparkly clean.. pure bliss.  Far Guy helped me vacuum my car, and I washed the windows in the car too!  Tomorrow I tackle my garage, it just needs a little straightening and some vacuuming.  I finally backed up my July Photos to disk.  I played ball with Chance.  I had a nap and I cooked supper for the third night in a row!  We went for a drive to look at the fields.. and I watched Big Brother..(Go Jeff).

I feel better now, not so out of focus:)IMG_5283

Glad to hear that you have clear vision and focus on your life! Sometimes we need time to get things done to help us achieve that. Sounds like you had a busy and productive day that left you feeling so very accomplished!

Cleaning the house is not my idea of fun! Love your pics.

Has to laugh at your idea of relaxing, but then it's whatever it takes to make yourself feel better!

I never choose to use a day off for cleaning, but I totally understand the satisfaction you get from putting things in order. Glad you are in focus! And that's a wonderful coneflower photo.

I also feel "off" when my home and surroundings get too disorganized and need a good cleaning, so I totally, totally understand how good that feels. :):)

Yes! Go Jeff!! ;)

Scrubbing and cleaning kind of sets the mind free to sort out and focus. Plus there is all that sparkle to be proud of when you're through. Way to go!

I love retirement...every day I get a nap. I also get to clean my house and work in the yard w.h.e.n. I want too.

I so understand what you are saying.

I can tell when I've been too stressed with my calendar and work because housework feels relaxing to me, too. It's nice to regain order in our homes.
