Funny, how just a few blogs entries ago, I was discussing chores…I believe it must be on my mind!!
Ohhhh, I got home late this afternoon from my writing appt, and began to look around my house. Clutter, clutter, stuff everywhere! I am actually to the point that I pass over something on the floor, a crumpled paper, a toy, a piece of clothing, I just don’t have the strength to pick it up…to put away. I am overrun with 6 children, 3 are 7 and younger, and quite messy…My “middle boys, 13 and 10…well it is a constant war to get them to complete their chores…I have gone “commando” with them. Which means, they are starting at zero and everything has to be earned! Still I have to deal with the arguments, the talk back the lack of follow through.
So what will we be doing this Memorial Day weekend??? We will be cleaning and beginning to de-clutter this house. I may only get one or 2 rooms done, but I will start! Just keep us in your prayers. That there is joy as we clean! Kind of a whistle while you work thing…
