of my senses today and took down and washed the curtains in both bedrooms and the front and back doors. I also washed the windows inside. I still have the living room curtains along with the kitchen and bathroom to do. Not today though as I was already tired when I started. It is a beginning on the Spring cleaning though. I will be getting rid of the bed in my spare bedroom and I am thinking about buying a loveseat or a small sofa.
It is a warm 65 degrees right now and mostly cloudy. It is very windy, In fact when I was bringing in a basket of clothes this morning the screen blew shut on my finger and I have a nice little cut to show for it.
I said I wasn’t cooking anymore for a few days but I fixed a chicken casserole for my lunch and had enough left for 3 portions for the freezer. I do love chicken casserole.
I hope you are all having a great weekend. Stay safe and be happy!!
Beth
i SO need to do spring cleaning! instead i'll just go outside and ignore the dirt inside. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, my! So do I love chicken casserole! It sounds quite tasty.
ReplyDeleteYou have been quite ambitious. I did take down the shower curtain for washing, and I also cleaned the glass in the front storm door. There is much more that needs to be done, but I lack the motivation.:-) Probably spring fever!:-)
xo Nellie
you're making me feel very lazy Beth, but I shall ignore the guilty feeling and put off my spring cleaning 'til later. :-)
ReplyDeleteI felt the warmth of sunshine for the first time in ages, so I have a smile on my face and a song in my heart, 'tis lovely to be alive when the suns smiling down on you. I thought I smelled the lovely aroma of chicken cooking, so I shall be dropping by... (well, may take a while but save me some) ... hugs aplenty my friend. xPenx
I should start spring cleaning too. I keep putting it off and saying next weekend :)
ReplyDeletenice beth....i started my spring cleaning in january and i am almost done. i only clean "heavy" once a year, while i am stuck inside anyway!!
ReplyDeleteThe one good thing about getting our house ready to sell is that it's all clean, inside and out. The closets are mostly empty..the shed out back has been cleaned and torn down..the attic is BARE....we are sooo happy to have all that hard work behind us.
ReplyDeleteOut here in West Texas, where the wind and sand blows a LOT, I quit using curtains long ago. I do have sheers in my dining room but I'm not sure why. I love just the blinds. I don't have curtains at our new place either...
Will your new sofa to go in the guest room be a hide-a-bed type? We have only two bedrooms in our new place and I am thinking of buying a futon for an extra bed, when cousins come to visit....
Hi Beth,
ReplyDeleteHas it? has it? finally arrived, your side of the pond and mine. I have spring fever today too, but need to build up energy a bit more, before any spring cleaning. Take Care and Pace Yourself.
Hugs Nita.
Enjoy your Spring, but pace yourself. I'd say you got a good head start on Spring cleaning. BGB
ReplyDeleteI get like that too..cleaning frenzy! Any chicken left? Xxxooo
ReplyDeleteHow ambitious you are today. I have to do that too in the near future. : )
ReplyDeleteI started my spring cleaning a couple of weeks ago...even though the weather outside isn't Spring yet, as I find it easier to do the hardest chores when it is cooler outside. After that I make a nice hearty dinner. Enjoy, but don't do too much in one day.
ReplyDeleteHi Beth:
ReplyDeleteGood not to try to do too much in one day. I've been doing little things building up to the big spring cleaning. :)
Enjoy your dinner!
It's not so bad cleaning things up if a person is able to open things up and be invigorated by the breeze. It's been really nice here though the clouds come and go and it looks bad the start of next week. Hope the weekend finds you refreshed and ready to face a brand new week my friend.
ReplyDeleteI started my spring house cleaning about 3 years ago. Still haven't finished it. LOL
ReplyDeleteDon't work too hard.
I wish I could wash curtains, but I have fancy dry clean only drapes. I did not choose them. They came with the house. I'm sure they were expensive and custom made, but I'd rather have simple curtains I can take down and toss in the washer. I'll probably never be able to afford to have all these drapes dry cleaned.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I do the same thing TexWisGirl does. ha ha!
ReplyDeleteYou did all that cleaning and then made a casserole?!? You are Super Woman!
Keep warm! :)
What a great day you have had. Chicken casserole sounds wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThere are times you just have to do stuff like that...then relax!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness you are energetic :) hope you got most of it done.
ReplyDeleteHope you are relaxing today Sis and seeing all the nice work you have done. SOrry bout your finger I know we take them for granted and when one is laid up..OUCH.. we miss it.. Take care of yourself and don't work so hard.. XOXO
ReplyDeleteHave a relaxing Sunday Beth...Spring cleaning is put on hold I just can't be bothered. Think I will read a good book instead.
ReplyDeleteHugs Sheila xx
Blessings.....
ReplyDeleteSome days are like that.
hope all is well.
been doing lots of reading lately and less of blogging thought i'd stop in for a quick hello and wish you a great week.
peace.

The warm weather and sunshine are to blame! I overdid it with my cleaning and yard sale and my muscles are sore today!! Have a blessed week!!
ReplyDeleteOuch! But the sunshine is so welcoming. I loved walking out of church into the warmth and sunshine this morning after church. Makes me smile!
ReplyDeleteJoyfully,
Pamela
Un cariñoso abrazo.

Yes the spring cleaning has begun.. We have warmed up enough for me to hang my wash out.. I so enjoy these warm days and hope they stick around.. Take care and don't over do it..Blessings, Susie
ReplyDeleteI also love a chicken cassarole and sometimes you just have to get in and do somthing like washing the curtains and by you I mean me.............I really need to wash the curtains over the front sliding door........
ReplyDeleteI'm doing much the same. I just gave a recliner to my sister. I am finally off today and should continue with my spring cleaning if I can find the energy. I honestly have to find the energy to avoid sitting around like a lump. That's what I really want to do.
