cleanliness is next to godliness... right?

i was a literal *mad woman* last night for two straight hours... why is it that we clean the house like a tornado, RIGHT before the cleaning ladies come? i'll never understand whether it's because i'm embarrassed of the way the house looks, or whether i just want to make their job easier? who knows. but one thing is for sure, i need to get on cleaning rampages like that a LOT more often! all the laundry is done. including the three sets of sheets and five hundred towels that have been waiting to be clean, for probably three weeks. feels good! and now let the cleaning ladies come and scrub the toilets and showers. i *LOATH* cleaning the bathrooms.

{and as a side-note, we currently live in a studio apartment above my in-laws garage... so, seriously, there shouldn't be that much to do. that just tells you how messy it was.}

instafriday #22

ahhh, it feels good to be back. it's been a long time since i've dumped my insta-photos on you!  so here we go: my mug swap arrived :) it is so cute, and honestly, this is exactly the kind of reminder i need in the morning. the baby has been waking up at 5:30. it's still dark out. and she doesn't go back to sleep after her bottle :( i need to see it as an opportunity to be thankful, spend time with the Lord, and rejoice...  instead of stumble and groan and wish for more sleep. i'm making a bunch of these cute headbands this weekend.  hoping to have them for sale next week.  aren't they cute? and super-fallish.  i've never been one to pay too much attention to the trends,  or the pantone fashion colors [because honestly i don't have the money. or desire.]  but i do see some tangerine tango and bright chartreuse in these ;) for each grandchild, my husband's family has an ice-cream party tradition at their 6-month b...
