So here's the deal. In less than 12 hours I will be entering a zone I have never been before. Normally that phrase would not cause any concern. I have convinced myself that I love a challenge, don't care what other people think of me and I can handle anything! But as the hour draws near, I am questioning these self pep talks. Maybe they are not so much constructional and motivational as just plain stupid.
Ok, here's the background. And if you know me, you know I love to tell a story in absolutely no order at all. And if you really know me, you know that I despise housework and there should be deadbolt on my door until somebody (not me) does something about the clutter and disorganization in my house! As I mentioned earlier, and as my blog name indicates, I am for lack of a better term (ok lazy might actually work here), domestically challenged. This being said, I have ventured out into the world of housekeeping.
What?? I can hear you now. Even louder is my voice, screaming in utter confusion and terror. The crazy thing is, apparently, I am actually good at housekeeping. I have an eye for detail and don't believe in doing the job halfway. This is just too funny, especially considering the condition of my own house. This revelation has opened my mind. I'm not incapable of cleaning, just incapable of cleaning my house. The reason for that would be...THERE IS TOO MUCH STUFF IN THE WAY! I can't clean what I can't see. Therefore, I will be trying to tuck away some funds so that we can get our garage door fixed, and then start hauling away! I am ready to de-clutter!! Now to find the money, energy, organizational tools, etc to accomplish the task.
...and to start back at the beginning...the new frontier is an actual housekeeping job that I obtained by my little ol' self. So now I have work on Friday..and on Saturday's (for the summer with the realty company). Yay me! But so nervous because the lady of the house will be there tomorrow and I want to be sure to look and act professional and do a good job. Ah the pressure.
One day at a time Leighanne, one day at a time.
