Spring Cleaning has started! Well I made a start on Sunday even though it was not March. I completely did our youngest's room and it now looks great. I know it won't stay that way but at least for a day or so I know it is really clean and tidy!

I just now have another ten rooms to do!!!! Oh good! And don't even mention the garden or garage!

Has anyone realised that blogging has become the modern day version of keeping a diary.

I was never very good at keeping a diary as a child. We had to do for some school projects and I could never think of anything to write. Now we can blog away to our hearts content about nothing really at all, and what we have done and where we have been and what we have had to eat.

Do you think that our Blogs will live on? Or should be print them out and preserve and thoughts in a book for our future selves?

Who knows !

I know what you mean! Sometimes just getting up, Boys ready for school and breakfast done seems like I have conquered Mount Everest! I have only just received my copy of February as Living is imported here so I get the magazine in the month its for, which doesn't help when you are trying to do things, like Halloween! Oh well.

Coming to the US in April for Easter again!!! Can't wait. Also get to see Martha on TV and not on the Web, yeah. Also get to collect some more Martha things!!!! Yeah only 7 weeks to go!!!!!

I think half the stuff in her calendar is just on there to fill the space. I was looking at the March one last night and she has "working out" on there only 3 times in the month and then on March 25th "download a book onto my Kindle" But on that note, today I have "take a shower" on my calendar today :)

One thing I have noticed about Martha's calendar is all the things she puts down to do like cleaning draws and gutters and I am sure she does some but I also think of the amount of staff she has. Sometimes I am going around trying to get things done but there is only me. Then I rope in Husband and Boys to help!!! They moan but at least the jobs do get done.

At least with Martha's lists you can have a good go at keeping up.

Martha did a great blog yesterday on sorting out her closet. Wow what a closet! My closet is tiny compared to hers but I think I will spend this Saturday sorting it out anyway. It is true what Martha says it only needs a few boxes and it soon gets in a mess. The weather is supposed to be dreadful over the weekend so it is a good opportunity.

We did sort out the attic between Christmas and New Year and it is so much better now. You can actually walk around.

See my blog for some photos of the before and after closet makover and the attic too.
