priorities
first of all , i have to tell you that i have been obsessed with "clean house"- a program on tv. that goes in, earmarks items for a huge yard sale - has it , and then matches the profits and takes that $ and completely makes-over the areas in the house that were usually disasterous. i have become so inspired by this show that i have decided to become ruthless in my own disast-opps- home. ssooooo, i was cleaning the downstairs- stuffing various treasures- now junk- into black bags (so i can't see it and change my mind), and in the process, i went upstairs for something and happened to open the spice cupboard- yow! what has been going on in there and why haven't i noticed it before??? leaving the downstairs project hanging, i began to empty the cupboard. i filled a small trash bag with old spices, flavors and empty containers. i'm sure that all the company i'm having in the next week and a half will be so impressed! (did i mention that joanna is being married ,yay, in just over a week and her new inlaws will be here- along with shannon,brian and kids and nella)-soo-o you can see why this project (the spice cupboard) was top priority. AM I NUTS? you don't need to answer that- but, do you find yourself doing the same kind of things? and is your spice cupboard neat?

you know i am major scatterbrain, and no, my spice cupboard is not neat. anymore. (again, you probably see it more than I do.) hah.
ReplyDeletewe all take after you, so no worries. wait until you see the "messiest home in america" episodes of clean house... those are disgustingly the best!
ReplyDeleteI love clean house as well...but me being the anti-pack rat that I am finds that I want to reach into the television and karate chop everyone.
ReplyDeleteI am soooooo checking that spice cupboard of yours the minute we arrive...
Looking forward to seeing you--------
I love that show too, but we do not get it here. My hat is off to you for the clean house goal. I am living in the midst of a semi-disaster! I know I need to de-clutter, but.... And, I need some lessons from Shannon on how to be an anti-pack rat. At least I know what I have in my spice cupboard if not the exact location!
