Clean Clean Clean

I am thankful for a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning and gutters that need fixing because it means I have a home.... I am thankful for the piles of laundry and ironing because it means my loved ones are nearby.  ~Nancie J. Carmody

I have to start off by saying how liberated I feel as I prepare for bed and look around to find my house is clean.  The dishes are done, the table is cleared, the bed is freshly laundered and made, the clothes folded and put away, along with supper done and meals prepped for the week for lunches and quick dinners when we have night classes.  I have never understood women who complain that they can find nothing to do in their home, I love being able to clean, do crafts, and just make my home more comfy to live in.  I know there are some women who would love to stay home and life's situations and circumstances won't allow that but I feel sad when women forget how wonderful keeping a home can be!  I know that one day I probably won't be able to stay home as we try to pay off student loans and get mr hubbins through the last stretch of school but we will see what the Lord has in store for us.

Today was a good day but again sunday left me feeling exhausted from dealing with ms. trial each time I see her.  Mr hubbins took the day off to study for an upcoming midterm and so we spent the day together.  We both are changing and prepping for baby cupcake to come and the positiveness of the change has us following each other's examples to becoming better.  I love the feeling that is coming into our home and the peace that seems to be dwelling here even when there are many problems in the apartment complex we live in.

I love being able to keep a home and wish I was able to stay at home and wish I could have lived in the olden days where you hang your laundry on the line, make homemade goodies for your children and hubbins when they come home and learn beautiful talents that beautify your home.  Oh the good ol' days!
