I’ve been cleaning a LOT! It looks pretty good around here. I’m not done, and I’m not speaking of my bedroom… But our main living area (kitchen, living room, dining room, entryway, bar area, old-laundry-room-turned-butler-pantry) looks nice. I’ve had to mop three times in the last two days. That sucks, but after going to the effort to mop thoroughly recently, I do NOT want to stick to my floor for at least another week. So I’ve done little areas here and there to keep it nice as things have spilled and then been tracked all over.

So, I’ve been cleaning the house and cuddling my son, who is having digestive trouble again and has needed hours of comforting.

What I have not done is exercise, stay within my calorie target, or heat-massage-ice my elbow like I’m supposed to.

Darnit.

And it isn’t going to get any better ’til next week because around lunchtime today, the kids and I are going camping at one of my sisters-in-law’s houses with all of the other sisters-in-law and accompanying kids while the men do a Batman movie-guys-night-out. It’ll be a grand time. I’m really looking forward to it. But I will undoubtedly eat too much and not exercise.

I’m running the dutch ovens.

Our contractor dropped off wood and ladders this morning to begin ripping off the vertical, purple siding on the front of our house. One more tiny step towards getting cleaned up and painted out there. They’re going to rip off the little roof thing, too. I’m very excited about that. I hope it’s down when I get back tomorrow afternoon.

Have a great weekend!
