This quote is completely accurate as I wrote in one blog entry about how I usually write one or two entries in a blog. That was in December of 2010 and here we are on Labor Day, 2011! Oh well. I am not going to beat myself up, rather, I'll get a smile out of it.
In the theme of Labor Day, and my day off from my 9-5 job, I figured I need to: clean the bathroom and vacuum/steam clean the carpet in the dining room. I realize that when we have kids, I really can't live as messy as I do...it's fine for two adults but I need to be more diligent when we have a family. So, I am going to use the three years God gives me while Scott is in law school to get domestic! Therefore, I am a Domestic Engineer in-training.
Scott and I both agree we would like me to be at home with the children during their first four years. I have full confidence in myself. So, I started googling "how to be a homemaker" and came across a blog. I wanted to stay updated and "follow" it-so I returned to my blog I almost a year ago!
Don't get me wrong...I'm a grown woman with a dishwasher, so our house isn't that "bad." It's just that cleaning doesn't come naturally to me. Mom, if you are reading this, you remember when I was a kid, my clothes were everywhere! My husband is definitely neater than I am. (I have improved since we got married, wouldn't you agree?)
I have all of the equipment I need:
-a caring, encouraging husband,
-a Swiffer, broom, and dust pan
-a carpet cleaner
-a vacuum cleaner
-a closet full of cleaning supplies (they're fun to buy!)
-dusters
-air fresheners
-WILLPOWER
So, here it goes! Enjoy the ride, and please don't leave any prints my newly washed windows!
Love,
LJO
