Yesterday i wrote in a very long post(at least for me) about cleaning my room n living room. I couldnt beleive what a difference that made in how we both slept last night. its not that our room was filthy, it wasnt. it jsut gets dusty in places you cant just get to and you have to tear it apart to get it. Our bed is too heavy to slide from one place to another, so I am forced to take it apart. the room did smell good though after. By the time i sat down, i wasnt gonna do anything else.
This morning i woke up at 5 am. I had told john i would make chile egg puff for breakfast, so i got up and put that together. I really need to put that recipe on my recipe spot, OMG it is so good. after that went into the oven, I cut the pineapple, cantelope and watermelon for our lunches this week. the cantelope n pineapple have been a part of our meals for the last few weeks. it really is a tasty combination. then I made johns cookies. I make him cookies about every two weeks. I really dont mind, maybe i should put up that recipe too.
So i was done with waht i was gonna do
oops, did anyone notice that big ole gap in the post. John just brought me breakfast so I had to stop n eat. I was hungry and it was goooood.
so back to where I was. I was done, then John got up and asked if I would go to target with him to get a light for his bike that he as finally decided to ride to work. I said sure, and took my shower and we left. I found a set of shelves to put our extended bar on. I am getting real tired of the current set up. at first, it was ok, but now its out of control. There are bottles and other alcholic parafanalia on our floor in the corner of our livingroom. now it just looks tacky.
So guess what happened. we got into the car on friday evening to go to P Wexfords for dinner. (See Reviews) When I got in on the passenger side I noticed the big ole crack in my windshield. I dont know when it got there, but now we have to pay for a new windshield. that jsut bugs me. Does anyone else notice i consistantly spell jsut wrong?
Oh! a few comments back the Devine One asked about my fish. when we got home from vegas, the house stunk so bad from the tank I couldnt stand it. Then, i looked closely at the tank and saw a bunch of little flying critters above the waterline inside tht tank. That was it. I had had it. the next morning I put all four fish back into the barrells outside. no more stink, no more flying critters. this morning i went out to feed them and check the water level in the barrel, and one more feeder died. now I am down to six. three of each. when they die, that is it. no replacetents here.
I think that is it. I really am trying to get caught up on all the things I want to write about without going on for too long. so see ya all later.
Awww the deep cleaning I myself did that with the big living room on Friday. Even moved all the furniture away from the walls. It does make the place smell fresher. Although I am sure you didn't have all the goodies stuck in under the cushions. Ya think it would kill the kids to walk to the garbage. They're not even supposed to be eating in that room..
ReplyDeleteOH yeah I would like the chilli egg puff recipe sounds divine...
ReplyDeleteOh dear - I don't know what would make your fishtank smell except that I've heard goldfish can be grungy little things......Did you maybe not have a filter running? But I'm glad it wasn't a more expensive experiment for you.
ReplyDeleteThat crack in your windshield might be covered by your car insurance depending on what you have...at least I'm going to hope it is. I remember I got a rock ding in my windshield about a week after I got my new car...fortunately I noticed and got it filled right away....and only after that did I discover my insurance would have paid to have it done.
And I'm feeling guilty because I really did need to deep clean this weekend and didn't do it......and now I don't want to disturb the furkids (they HATE the vacuum cleaner).
I really need to do some heavy duty cleaning here too. It all piles up over the summer somehow. I really like to do mine at least before the holidays. It really isn't any fun to decorate the house when there is too much clutter or what not. That is odd about the fish tank smelling so bad. I wonder if the filter was running correctly. I am sure the fish are just as happy in their barrels though! You don't have any problems with the fish getting eaten outside? My parents can't keep their fish alive it seems in their outside pond. Raccoons and other furry things seem to gobble them up. I think my parents finally gave up. Hope you have a lovely Sunday evening. Bravo on all the cleaning!! Take care ! :)
ReplyDeleteI started the heavy cleaning....I even started wiping down the blinds...but decided I just need to take them down and soak them in the tub. Our bed is way to heavy to move too...Im looking for a different frame/headboard now.
ReplyDeleteYour breakfast sounds YUMMMMM....will have to copy the recipe. :)
I know all about the windshield thing..been there and it is not a fun thing. I feel for ya my friend...good luck!
Lu, that recipe is delish! and it feeds a lot. we got a price on the windshield today, not as bad as i thought it would be.
ReplyDeleteJolly, it sounds so funny coming from you about deep cleaning. it seems like any cleaning after that hurricane turnes out to be deep cleaning. it does sound like you are getting back to the day to day tasks. i dont know why the tank smelled so \bad. i cleaned the filter, and half the water every other day. I just couldnt take it any more. and happy or not, they are out there to stay
