Thing 1 and Baby K left and made it safely home Monday. I know they’re happy to be home and with Husband N and the animals, to sleep in their own beds.
And I gotta say, that baby is pretty much all consuming. I’m glad I had babies when I was young. I’m much slower now, and she’s non-stop! But those sweet smiles and waves and kisses are worth every moment of being tired!
I was more sad than I anticipated that night, but Tuesday I was less sad. Missing them, but also kind of pleased to be alone.
Thing G never ever leaves the house, but decided Tuesday to go out into the world. (You do you, kid.)
So I was completely alone in this house.
Did y’all hear my most satisfied “Ahhhh”?
I stripped and remade my bed and the guest bed. Did the dishes, and seven loads of laundry (all those extra sheets and towels, yo).
After that, I opened all the windows, the big garage door, even closets and the pantry and I went systematically through every room burning white sage.
I went all Lady Macbeth up in this bitch, “Out, damned spot! Out, I say!”
This house needed a good smudging. I’m ushering out the chaos and inviting in peace.
And while tensions are high with what’s going on in the world, it seemed a smart choice to facilitate peace where we dwell.
It feels different in here and I like it.
I’m going to wipe down the kitchen and my bathroom and get after my reading.
I’m curious about this book club book, have any of y’all read it?
Hope your Thursday is everything you need it to be.

I think I read atomic city girls. I need to go to nook to see if it’s there and we can discuss
I was hoping I could count on you! ❤
😉
I did read it. When you want to discuss shoot me a note!!
Excellent!!
It does feel great to get things organized and clean. I have no end of projects like that. I started with my car and my wife’s car yesterday. It was the outside yesterday, today I will give them some more coats of wax and do the insides. It’s probably a guy thing. It’s ridiculous how many car cleaning and waxing products I have. I could have worse habits. LOL
I’m sad I can’t drive my car over your house for a nice wash and wax!
And you’re right about worse habits. And I’m pleased I smudged the house, though I’m still washing the sage smoke smell out of my hair, so is it really a win? 😂
thanks for the chuckle!
