I cleaned my house today from top to bottom. And that's a pretty big deal if you know who I am. I clean if I feel like and if the mood strikes me. But lately I have been trying to develop a discipline of cleaning even if I don't want to. Mature huh!? Ya really mature since I need a pat on the back.. :) We went to church this morning since today is Sunday and the Lord only asks for one morning a week. It was a rocking sermon! I loved it and I love that church. I hope I can put Pastor Paul's words into action this week. He spoke about being a good neighbor and what that really means. I have decided to follow Jesus! No turning back! No turning back! Praise God for that!
Anyways when we got home I started right away and cleaned up Gage's nasty bedroom. It only took 15 minutes so after a short break to get my mind set up I tackled Zoe's bedroom. Her room took about 25 minutes because she had crushed crackers everywhere.. don't ask me why. After I had finished the kids rooms I went downstairs and cleaned down there a bit.. not much since I have been doing that everyday for awhile so it doesn't get freakishly gross down there. Trust me it has before. I proceeded to come back upstairs and clean my whole bedroom.. which is heavy duty cleaning. And I hung up the lovely curtains I had purchased a while ago. They are so pretty and I am so glad I finally hung them.
Can you tell I am extremely proud of myself? If you cant tell.. I am! I honestly don't like cleaning and I don't mind ignoring a mess. But as I am getting older (26 in June ugh!) I find that I cant simply ignore anything. I don't know why.. I blame my mother. But I like this part of growing up. I like the house clean and I kinda like doing it. Except for the out of breath part but hopefully that will change. And I am hoping God sends a flow of energy like He did today again tomorrow so that I can get the laundry done and maybe even the closet cleaned out! We can hope!
