The Devil Made Me Do It!


Anyone who knows me knows that I HATE doing house work of any kind. I worked
most of my life not for riches but to be able to put my socks, underwear, etc.,
into the cleaners!!!

I didn't sleep too well last night--got up a few times and it
took awhile to get back to sleep and that was usually when I was sitting on the
couch.

Due to that I was dragging today and didn't go out. There were a
few things I wanted to do--never did open the sofa bed since I brought it home
and I wanted to get an idea of how much room it would take up and if the  small
dresser draw would fit comfortably. It fit nicely and is sort of a private area
that guests wouldn't interfere with my part of the apartment.

After doing that I decided  maybe, with 5 months to go before
Alfredo and Michael get down here, I might be able to clean the place up a
little--hey, they think something is dirty they can clean it!!!  LOL   That's
the kind of host I am--after 5 minutes you are no longer a guest!!
:O)

I decided to 'tackle' the kitchen--no I wasn't going to wash
down wall, clean cupboard doors, etc., just get rid of excess 'stuff' and put
things away--I threw out a large garbage bag of useless items like empty jars,
old spices, broken cheese slicers, etc.

Felt proud of myself though it didn't look any
cleaner!!!!

Around 5 I went down to the breezeway and introduced my new
rules about no one talking about doctors, hospitals, illness, aches and pains,
etc. We did find other things to talk about!!!

Right now we are having a lightening show in the sky with some
accompanying thunder--of course that doesn't mean it will rain--it can just be
the sky putting on a dazzling show!!

Tomorrow is Friday which means movie day--I think Allen and I
are going to see "Burn After Reading"! Will let you know.

The movie should be good and heard some mixed review on it.
Don't worry about cleaning.You can clean when we leave.
It is going to be fun.Maybe we can get Mr.Clean
to stop by for a visit?
