Must get a bit of housecleaning done this afternoon. With the windows up lately, the dust is a bit over the top, and with company coming over tomorrow night for youngest son's 16th birthday----well, the mess has got to be dealt with.
I did get some running around done. Library, the fruit/veg. market (what do you call those stores?) and had a craving for cantaloupe, so got me a 1/2 one. Not quite ripe, but appeased the urge. Will probably go out tonight to shop for the birthday son. Getting the house a bit spiffed up now is a simple pleasure that makes me feel so good when it's accomplished, that I don't really always think of it as a chore. It's when the things to do pile up so that discourages me.
We're sort of at that place. There's a mess in every room. Clearly we don't keep up.
Tomorrow sweet Indian boyfriend and his sister will come over for dinner. The birthday son has a bit of a crush on the Indian sister, so he's pretty pleased at the turn of events. She's a good 10 years older than him, so it's fun to watch them tease one another.
Must go now. Ready, set, go!
