Housecleaning

Today is dedicated to housecleaning!  Ugh!

I have a house full guests arriving on Friday and it seems I am the only one capable of cleaning any longer around here.  Or at least the only one that actually cares.

Monday I thought I would tackle the pantry/utility room and removed three garbage bags of stuff the kids had just thrown in there, plus an addition four paperbags of outdated food - placed where it did not belong and therefore could not be found and used.  I realize that food is still good long after its expiration date - but some of this was dated 2003 for expiration!  Amazing quality of kids I have raised.  Sigh.

So, today is the living areas, Friday will be the kitchen and then the place will be completely trashed by Tuesday when everyone leaves and I will get to start over.  Sigh.

But, then will come the preparation for the big yard sale in June, to be followed by my move under a cedar tree somewhere or perhaps a men's shelter ...

It is long overdue my walking away from this life, only I still can not walk and I keep falling off of my little scooter, so joy - joy - joy!  I sure hope God knows what He is doing with me because I seem to be on the trembling edge of reality.

Aren't you glad you are not me?
