It's Spring Break....Let the Cleaning Begin!

So it's Spring Break around here. Casey's off from school (which is only one day a week, but still...), lots of our friends are out of town seeing family, and I have a number of household projects I'm dreaming of accomplishing this week.  Such as...

- cleaning out our closets. If we didn't wear it last year, we're not gonna wear it this year. It's outta here!

- cleaning out the fridge. I already worked on this a bit when I brought in the new groceries. It's so shameful the amount of food I throw away! Anyways, still gotta wipe the shelves and deal with all the jars and such in the door. Oooh, and the freezer. Ugh! I hate cleaning out the freezer. I never know what to do with all the food I'm storing in there. How long is too long to be frozen? I never know. Let me just be honest with you and with myself...I'm probably not going to eat it!

- putting some furniture items on Craig's List! We have several pieces of furniture in our garage that I've been wanting to either sell at a garage sale or put on Craig's List. I think I'm gonna give Craig a try. I've never done it before. I'm excited. Show me the money, Craigy Boy!

- build or (more likely) prepare to build a deck in our backyard. I am SO excited about this. Our backyard is just kinda gross. I don't like being back there. So, with the help of some of our handy Brenham friends we are going to create a lovely place to sit and talk and play and enjoy the outdoors. I HOPE I get to show you some before AND after pics this week.

That's it, I think. It's good that I've posted this...now it will be harder for me to talk myself out of getting these jobs done! :) If you've blogged about it...you're committed, right?!

And just FYI- I WILL be wearing pearls, a sundress (with petticoat) and pumps while accomplishing all these tasks. If you want to DO your best you have to LOOK your best! That's my motto!
