We have been productive, yes we have.
Nov. 5th, 2011 10:01 pmSlept in until 9 am today and was glad for it.
The kiddos and I got the living and dining rooms cleaned. I found the missing switch for the floor lamp (the main reason I insisted on cleaning the living room) and evicted a warren of dust bunnies from under the couch. The dining room table actually LOOKS like a dining room table and not a catchall with about four squares for eating. My silver tea set, while not properly polished, has been washed and looks very nice.
It took the three of us about an hour or so to tidy the living room. It took IDK and I about the same amount of time to tidy the dining room.
I also got Cuteness' laundry and a batch of blankets and towels done and IDK emptied and reloaded the dishwasher, so the kitchen is about halfway to tidy.
There's a baked acorn squash cooling on the stove to be made into soup tomorrow. There's a good start to a clove orange sitting on the dining room table.(Time consuming, but good magickal work. I need more cloves and my hands smell wonderful)
Tomorrow will be apple picking (if available), grocery shopping, finishing the kitchen and the rest of the laundry.
I get an extra hour of sleep tonight. Huzzah.
My fingers are tingling with the desire to be crafty. I guess I'll crochet for a while.
For the record, if anyone wants to buy Queenie Christmas presents this year, I need pot holders, stick incense and a full sized broom. Fire-themed pot holders would be nifty, but no chili peppers. I despise chili peppers.
