Clean!

I splurged. Now I feel guilty, but only slightly.

I hired a cleaning service. They came today and the result is just awesome.

Wow!

Zing!

Sparkle!

I love it. Things I never get to – and undoubtedly would never get to – are spotless. Last night I was thinking about the things I had to do this weekend and dredged up cleaning then remembered that I didn’t have to clean. I can actually do some gardening, reading, and writing without having to think about dusting and floors and bathrooms and bleach and scrubbers and etc.

Last night, as a total surprise, H called. She was 10 minutes away! Seems her team spent a night in St. Louis before heading to Kentucky. So K and I piled into the car and went to say hello to her. We chatted for about an hour, which is nowhere near long enough, but still it was a treat. Gosh I miss her.

The final tidbit is that I am, once again, considering a half-marathon.
