Humbug....

So this will be a short but sweet note today. Spring cleaning has still not made it to the top of my list.
Several days in the high 80's has taken the umphhhh out of me.
Yes the air conditioners are running.
Window air conditioners, as my old house is not equipped with central air.

I, however, have finally completed the pamphlet for the non profit, and considering my total lack of knowledge of certain computer programs it certainly took longer than it should have. I am relatively sure there was an easier way to do it..but hey it is presentable and finished.

On the bright side, we are having a bit of much needed rain, and the nasty thunderstorms have apparently headed around us for now..so all is good. Well except for wet pups. Nothing quite smells like wet pups.

So for now, think I'll finish the evening chores, and head to the shower.
Another long day awaits. Maybe I'll actually get to my list again.

Spring Cleaning part 4

So it has been unexpectedly warm and sunny lately, certainly not the norm in this part of the country for April. Heck, still have my studded snow tires on my van.
Need to get those off before the fifteenth.

My spring cleaning has come to a screaming halt, as other tasks have taken priority as well as the Easter holiday.
I do intend to proceed with the cleaning out of the house as soon as the weather cools off or I decide to turn on the air conditioner should the weather stay warm.
Warm weather and I are no longer friends. After years of baking in the sun, my old body has opted for the fifty degree days and thirty degree nights as the optimum temperature range.
Go figure.
Laundry and making the dreaded shopping list are on today's agenda, both thankless jobs.
Maybe I'll attack a kitchen cupboard or two later on, but I have to finish a program I am doing for a non profit club first.
Bathing the two pups are also on my to do list for the day. Yep I still make lists, for everything. I don't always follow them, but for some reason they give me a bit of comfort. I guess knowing that I am at least thinking in an organized manner makes me feel better.
Lets see now...wrote a least one blog today...that's a check off my list. These lists do seem to work, well on with the day.
