SNOW OUTSIDE covers all. The heater is keeping us warm. Thankful it's working well. Thankful. Today, I am much better health wise. Asthmatic coughing occasionally. Energy level a tad bit better. A cold can plow over some people. I have become one of those people. This WINTER has been challenging.
I should cut out paper snowflakes to display in the windows dangling about. Simple pleasure to lift my spirits. Instead, I am thumbing through magazines that were hidden away in a computer bag. The plastic cover still unopened. Easter from Martha Stewart's LIVING and Taste of Home's April/May issue. I never missed looking at these last Spring. Too busy or what? Maybe looking at SPRING ISSUES will get me excited that SPRING is one day closer.
"Come along children. We must not doddle. Keep busy. Keep moving." These words echo in my mind. I remember school when I was a child. We had to stay busy each school day even when the weather was awful. Busy. Busy. Busy. Motion in action. Motion in motion.
Indoor's SPORTS is furniture shuffling. Deep cleaning and rearranging rooms. I am truly what one would call S.L.O.W. Sloooooooooow. Oh so slow.
The Tortoise and the Hare comes to mind. Steady is the course. Finish strong. I'd rather be energetic like the hare. Reliable like the tortoise. Truthfully, Toby, the Tortoise is focussed and determined to finish the race. Perhaps being a TOBY is the better way to be.
Can we have it both ways? I watched this 1934 short film. Put a huge smile on my face. Warmed my ambition. Back to it and soon the rooms will be rearranged and I will be able to admire the rooms. Lord willing.
I am pleased with the new Master Bedroom arrangement adding the Tall Boy and taking away the Pencil Desk. Filling the Tall Boy with my articles and giving my Hubby more drawer space in the dresser seems more functional. Glad it is done.
Great week. Got to feeling better after 6 weeks of being ill. Caught up on laundry. Rearranged the Master Bedroom. Deep cleaning the bedrooms this Winter. Started on rearranging the two other bedrooms. The week-end cometh. I so hope all the bedrooms are finished by Sunday night and the fridge totally cleaned out. This would make me pleasantly happy this Winter.
✔A big check off my 'THINGS TO DO LIST.' Leaving room for more to do before FEBRUARY arrives. Deep cleaning the main bathroom during February. The Bathroom is falloff tile that needs scrubbed. The Bedrooms in January.
JANUARY: Deep Clean the Bedrooms and rearrange rooms.
FEBRUARY: Deep Clean the Bathrooms.
Spare room worked in.
MARCH: Spare room.
Stop there.
Blessings,
