I spent the day yesterday helping a neighbor move. Well, packing rather than moving, that’s for today. In the time that I was there we got most of the upstairs packed, but still have a ton left to do. I was hoping to get most of the packing done yesterday so that we could get everything moved into a “POD” today and then be done with it, but it looks like that won’t happen.

I feel bad for my family. While I’m out helping other people, it zaps my strength to work on my own home, and let me just say…it really needs it! I try to keep the main floor spotless in case company drops by, but with 3 kids and the “Demon” child, that’s not always easy to do. If we had a couple of extra hundreds laying around I would love to look into a Cleaning Service. Just to come in once a week to polish my bathrooms and my kitchen. I would really love someone to come in and do laundry! 6 people…the pile is monstrous!

The kids are getting old enough to help carry some of the chores, but there just never seems to be enough hands to get it all finished!
