Fine China

Well Gracie Wanted up a few minutes before 8 today, so we have a long day ahead of us. On the RARE days she sleeps until 9, our day flys by. However, up before 8 and the day drags. So this morning, I brewed a cup and here I am. Gracie is watching Franklin, which I hate, because He is one bad turtle. Never listens to his mom.

This week we are house sitting for some friends, Dave and Trina. Watching there shitzu doggie, Purdy. Well If you have ever house sat, you know there is only so much to do at someone elses home. Yesterday, I had put Grace down for a nap, checked my e mail for the millionth time, and nothing good was on tv. I was so antsy.

I really dont know why I like to clean things up. And dont think for a minute I'm organized at home. I blame it on shows like clean sweep, or how clean is your house. I'm a firm believer in clearing out your closet every 3 months of clothes you dont wear. Sometimes I keep them stored in a bag until the next clear out. If i dont miss something, that bag goes out. A couple months ago, geoff was working a 13 hr shift, So i had put grace to bed and was watching tv and I thought, I should use my fancy china I had Inherited. That led into-- Hey I should clean out my cutlery drawer, oh and then theres that Junk drawer, op, and that Other Junk drawer. Hmmm, this cupboard is...awkward... and If i moved this here and that there... Well needless to say, making the life changing descion to use my country rose(never used before) royal albert china led into a 2 day organizing project... How did that happen?

So yesterday, I decided to organize the Brosseau Pantry. I had wanted to do a few things for them because I knew Trina would be laid up for a few days and she has a young family and they are BUSY. So I organized their pantry. Yes, it did cross my mind that Trina might be a little irratated that her stuff is now put where i think it should go, but i pushed that outta my mind and continued on. Two days ago I did there laundry and organized their tuperware drawer. I crossed a line a long time ago. No looking back now. Damage is done.

Did i mention Geoff has been taking the trailblazer everyday? And also that Grace as broke or torn apart more things than I can keep track of. Maybe my organizing can make up for... something.. anything. I dunno.

Well... thats all for now, I'll see what today turns out to be... If I'm lucky, someone will stop by for Tea and Grace and I can stop seeing double!
