But eventually I remembered that my bedroom floor looked like this:
Although, actually it looked worse than this. I took this picture several days ago and laundry had continued to get piled higher and higher on our floor. But...at least you can tell that I tried to lay it out flat! I didn't want it to get wrinkled or anything while waiting to get folded or hung up! ha, ha!!!
By 10:00 I needed an little extra motivation since I was spending too much time watching in awe out my window to see how they trimmed and cut down my trees! I decided I was going (try) to match them in their intensity and efficiency and so I made my own little "challenge" to get my List finished before they finished their List!
Do you see the guy in the tree? |
This looked fun! |
So...I got busy and worked hard. But 5:30 came and they got their trucks all packed up and I was still working on the laundry and vacuuming. They won. They finished their list before me. But, I didn't let that stop me.
I poured myself a glass a wine and kept at it. Vacuum in one hand and glass of wine in the other. Seriously. I'm not kidding. By 7:45 I had all of my hard jobs finished with the exception of cleaning my bathroom. All that is left is stuff that I can finish by the end of the week. And, if Friday afternoon comes and my list from yesterday is complete, I'll feel like it was a very successful and productive week!!!

I LOVE THE FACT THAT YOU WERE COMPETING WITH THE TREE SURGEONS! Congrats on getting it all done, that was quite a list!
Sft x
Wow... Well done! That was quite a list, I'd have had a bottle in my hand, never mind a glass!! ;)
great pics...I was wondering how you survived your HUGE list! :)!
maybe that's what I'm doing wrong. My entire house is a mess and needs cleaned up, but there is no wine in the house. Love it!
