31 Days to Clean... maybe...

31 days to clean! This is what I need. Day 1 was today. The task for the day, the kitchen. Dishes, Ugh! (My second least liked chore, actually third least behind trash and toilet)

We recently switched up jobs and the new person responsible for dishes is still learning. This has created quite a back up this past weekend and lots of work for Momma. 


So, it seems like a good day for  the kitchen. Well that is until this happened and we needed to make sure he would be okay.  
(Dropped concrete block on it)

And then errands that needed to be run for Daddy for business. And of course the usual: nursing baby, school with the girls, diapers, meals, baths and all that fun stuff. 

And don't let me forget that I didn't realize that we were out of both dishwasher detergent and dish soap until after we were home from being out and about.

We have just finished supper. I am waiting for hubby to get home from class and an impromptu trip to the store for said soaps. 

Because, I have no system for cleaning other then do the next thing. My house is normally a wreck and it must be brought under control. I will get my kitchen done today! (At least the corner pictured above, which is really the worst of it anyhow)


UPDATE: Dishes all done. Corner of the kitchen cleaned.

In-ten-tion-al-ly

adverb : intentionally, deliberately, on purpose, purposefully, knowingly, wittingly, consciously, in full awareness Intentionally That is my word for 2015. A word that requires action. To live with intention; on purpose! To purposefully go about my days. No longer moving from one task to another just because it needs to be done. But to work towards an overall goal while doing those same tasks.   The goal with intention and purposeful living? To be purposeful in the role God has called me to. To be deliberate in sharing my faith. To be diligent in pouring over the scriptures. To be intentional when it comes to loving (RESPECTING) my husband.  To be purposeful in teaching my children and training them in righteousness. To make decisions according to knowledge, not flippantly or because that is what I am 'expected' to do. (Especially not because that is what I am expected to do.) To consciously create an atmosphere in our home that nurtures love, joy and contentment.  ...

Tuckered Toddler

Webb and I got home one night from a night out alone (few and far between these days) and little Sam had fallen asleep on Cat's bed. Just too cute not to snap a photo.

The Scoop

Why I ventured into homemade laundry detergent, I am still not so sure. I think that my ultimate goal, as it is with most things, is to save money. I try to be a "savvy shopper" and for me that is not just about shopping. It is also about finding ways to save on things that we use every day. Maybe I should say I try to be a "savvy saver". Either way I had been hearing about laundry detergent from other moms at park day and read where a friend had made some. I figured what have I got to lose and my stockpile of detergent was dwindling. I purchased the ingredients and made it. Here is what I used. This recipe is supposed to last for approximately 4-6 months. I figured we would be around 3-4 months as we seem to have many, many loads of laundry each week. I prefer powder over liquid detergent so this fit. PROS: The clothes came out clean. I didn't have to put in anything extra. I did still use bleach for my whites. Not sure if it was needed or not...
