I got lots of things done this weekend, unfortunitley most of it was not on my TO DO list. Jim did get some work done on the bathroom, and I think about 3 loads of laundrey made it thru, My bedroom is clean now. Somehow my room had become the dumping ground for everything in the house that didn't have a home. Unfortunitly all that stuff that didn't have a home is now piled up in my hallway.
I am completley nourotic when it comes to cleaning, its all or nothing. I can't just tidy up it has to be perfect and all done properley or I won't do it at all. This drives Jim insain, because most of the time it dosn't get done. So I didn't just tidy my bedroom, I ripped it apart moved all the furniture so I could vacume under everything. Sorted thru all my clothes and rearanged the closset, vacumed and dustted all the drawers. polished my shoes, washed the windows. Yes I know I am insain and need help.
I had a full English breakfast Sunday morning. We found a shop that has English bacon and English baked beans and English sausges and Black pudding. We were so looking forward to this breakfast. Jim got it all cooked up, we sat down to eat all excited and then took one bite and relized. English bacon is blande English baked beans are extra starchy and well black pudding has to be made just right so that its not gross. So now we will go back to enjoying Canadian things and try to remember that not everything is as good as we remember.
Oh happy day...

Oh Amber that's too funny! You sound like me when I go home to my parent's. I always want roast goose or elk or something wild that my dad used to make when we were living in the north, only to remember that sometimes I didn't like what he made, it just reminded me of growing up. As for the cleaning, I hear ya, although I have no kids (except the one I married! lol) to contend with on the weekends. You and Jim need to come over for dinner one night too, we'll have to catch up before Christmas.
I was thinking the same thing today when i was cleaning Marley's room... i have to do absolutely EVERYTHING in one room... it is definitely all or nothing!! Keith has the ability to tidy and do a few things here and there... i can't do that... i'm so happy you are just like myself in that respect :)
I am just thinking you need to look up flyladys addy. I have heaps of fun with that.
