i know, i say pretty a lot.
and lovely, even more.
today i bought a shabby chic table cloth, which unfortunately i have to iron.
confession: lately i am feeling so over housework. it’s endless! and i don’t even have that big of a house. and i only have a husband and small child. there are just too many nooks and crannys and creases and etc. etc. etc.
am i giving up? no, i will continue to keep a clean house because it’s a good thing. but i admit, i am not as “on the ball” these days and i don’t really care anymore. ok, that’s a lie, i still care, but i am learning to get over it.
i have the poem “babies don’t keep” on my fridge, i love it so and it really makes me come down to earth when i start turning into a grumpy alien from everything not being in its place. and i know that my house is clean… maybe not perfectly clean… but clean enough. i am a recovering perfectionist, so if i sound a bit dramatic it’s because it’s really hard to not obsess over it – if you are/were a perfectionist i am sure you are nodding your head. and if you aren’t then you are probably laughing, which is fine, laugh away!… it’s silliness i tell ya’.
have a great night.
relax
