You are seriously one of the most dedicated bloggers I read. Now reading your list of recent cleaning accomplishments on top of it all has me completely amazed. I mean, who cleans their baseboards with a toothbrush?!? My baseboards are lucky to receive attention more than once or twice a year! um…you took a break?!?

Your list reminds me of all of those areas that are the last ones to be cleaned and the hardest to modivate myself to clean.

It is refreshing! I think, like every good teacher, you are "setting up your classroom." I fully support you in this and would even love to watch the kids for you some time in late August so that you can finish up the classroom prep if you need it! Also, if you need help organizing, I would like to offer my SIL. I thought I was good, but seriously, she is AMAZING (that is Care N BTW) I get that mood about once a month. It is refreshing!

Doesn't it feel good to have a clean and organized and inviting home? There's no better feeling. I can only picture the look on your husband's face as he found you scrubbing away in the bathroom! And, the itty bitty corner behind the potty is my least favorite cleaning place. Ugh. See, you're past the worst already! Your son kills me...so funny. You better clean the dog next year for him too! It will feel so good to start the quickly coming school year on an organized foot! So proud of you! This is so great! Doesn’t it feel good to have a clean and organized and inviting home?

Usually I do the opposite though! Take advantage of the energy while you can! The blog can wait! I've definitely been enjoying the summer and taking it easy on the blogging.

I thought the blogging world was plugging along like normal, only to find out there are others out there (besides me) who are frantically cleaning and not writing so much. I'm back today and already planning for my Weekend Thoughts post. It’s so interesting that I have been in the same phase as well.

I'm feeling a need to pull back a bit and focus on home more as well. I understand the desire to start the homeschooling year on a good note, with a clean and organized home.
