I am sad, because we took a video of the cat enjoying his christmas present , but it didn’t work. But I have a picture of the cat today. he has been very help ful with my chores . First he showed me where to sweep . ( he approved of the piles by sitting in them) Then he helped me sort laundry.
domestic life
I was reading a friends blog this morning (http://daniebob.wordpress.com/) and it got me to thinking about keeping house. Actually, it is something I think about a lot. I like my house to be clean. I like living in an organized space, but organization ( despite my profession ) is not natural to me. I’ve read all kinds of books on organization and keeping house. I’ve learned a lot , but I swear they all take one step into crazy. I read one book that tried to tell me tat being overweight was related to being disorganized. Elsewhere, I was told to wear shoes as part of being dressed for the day. I hate shoes. And someone else wanted me to clean my drains weekly.
Today’s hint: break down the big or overwhelming jobs into the smallest possible components.
I don’t always do that – sometimes the list says clean bathroom, but when I don’t want to do it, I list each part. It takes the same amount of time – but it is easier to deal with in small parts. What is really strange, is that I can trick myself. How does that work?
