#2: keeping my cool

Being at home a lot with a super-busy working husband = chores.

Hmmm...I don't like the sound of that too much.  However, I have really started to take pride in my home because I guess that is what home ownership does to us.

You can't have nice things unless you take care of them.

I know, I know....

So, I have jumped on board with the organizing/clean stuff.  I used to keep a fairly clean home, but thanks to Martha Stewart, I am really going to have a clean home.

Well, part of cleaning each day is doing the dishes.

I think that doing the dishes is the one chore I really hate.  Truly--as soon as the sink is completely cleared, more dishes end up in there--magically, perhaps.  I just know I didn't put them there.

My first instinct is to be a little frustrated, but then I remember that this is 2013, my magical year, and I smile as I wipe off another plate and put it in the dishwasher (thank heaves for that appliance).

We are blessed here in 2013!

And I smile.

And I know that I am serving my family...and that ghost who keeps putting dirty dishes into the sink and leaving them there.
