I think I may have stumbled upon the next great fitness craze – for OCD types:
Scrubbing the kitchen and/or bathroom.
Iggy killed my laptop last night. Spilled a cup of water all over it. This came after a day during which I was fired by a client and decided I could not attend the Midwest Land Trust Conference due to severe lack of cash. Bad, bad day.
So today, since I can do no real work without a functional computer, I decided to take charge of the one area of my life where I have a modicum of control – cleaning the house. I made a list:
- scrub stove
- scrub cabinets
- mop kitchen floor
- vacuum
- scrub tub
- scrub/disinfect/destink toilet
- rid house of extraneous flotsam and jetsam (this may be overly ambitious…)
- hoe garden
So far I have knocked the first two items off the list. But in so doing, I have given my core a workout the likes of which it has not seen since the Monkey Bar days. Whooff.
Now I am heading up to scrub the cat barf stain off the bedroom rug (I know, not on the list, but it needs doing).
Sorry ’bout both the client and the computer. Good thing new MacBook Pros were announced today, eh?
😉
And I can’t help but giggle slightly when I see “hoe garden’. I keep seeing some pimp watering his stable of growing fillies.
I know….. I’m not right in the head. Must be the Wisconsin side of the family.
Hey Karen,
I’m sending you a hug and a smile. Hope things are getting better. Let’s get together to walk around Olbrich or to stroll to Java Cat. I’m back in town on Monday.
Hugs!
Althea
Back in town from where??
I would love to see you and your urchins.
