Maintenance Required

The last 6 weeks have been all about maintenance. I started with my house. I have organized and cleaned out every closet, drawer, cupboard, nook and cranny. Everything is in place. I took a carload to the thrift store over the weekend. MMMMMMMMM. It feels so good! I am the opposite of a pack rat. I looooove to trash stuff (you and me both Cyndi!)
I gave myself until the Friday before last to be done with my house. I finished 2 days early, which left me some time to get Easter and Spring decor up (Thanks Shelbie! She did it all and it's gorgeous- way better than I could've done).

Last week was all about KIM maintenance. Hair is cut and colored. Eyebrows waxed. Laser hair removal touch up. Pedicure. Teeth bleached.

Tonight my dad and brother came over to help give blessings to each of us.

In the next 2 days all rugs, towels and sheets will be washed, shorts and bathing suits will be packed, bathrooms will be scrubbed to sparkling, floors cleaned by me on my hands and knees, and each hose attachment on my vacuum will be used.

What else can I do? This time next week I will be on the beach...saying lots of silent prayers for my mom! I'm missing some stuff going on with her and my sister's 4th baby this month.

Now I have tears in my eyes.

I just have to remember that this time next week I will be on the beach.

It will be so fun. I hope things are ok at home. What is going on with your mom? I love Judy.

You are awesome. Today I took a huge sack of "junk" (that Paul would probably call treasures) to Goodwill. It feels so good. I'm sure your house is sparkling.

I hope you post lots of pictures and make us all jealous!
