This morning I did something that I’ve been putting off for a long time…even as I type that…I realize how many things that could have been…seems I have the slightest tendency to procrastinate…especially when it’s something that I don’t want to do in the first place…

Case in point…cleaning the wooden blinds…they’ve been dusty for a while…I tried ignoring them…that didn’t help…I bought one of those little blind cleaner things…but…since I never took it out of the package…it hasn’t helped either…it’s in the laundry room now…

You get my drift…it’s been a while…so…why did I decide to do it this morning…what happened to spur me on…honestly…I’m not real sure…but…last night…the neighborhood dogs were all barking and just wouldn’t quit…that kind of spooked me a bit…so…after making certain that all the doors were locked…including my bedroom door…which I never even close…I closed the bedroom blinds…again something I never do because I like the light to come through in the morning…and…where my house is…and what it would take to look in my windows…well…I just take my chances…

Anyway…this morning…as I was opening the blinds…I couldn’t help but notice all the dust…so…without really thinking…I took a tissue…and wiped some of it off…it came off much more easily than I had anticipated…I wiped some more…I liked what I saw…or didn’t see…I got the Swiffer duster…that window was clean in about two minutes…I went to the other one…same thing…I quickly made my rounds…bathroom…kitchen…dining room…living room…guest room…I was done…

I was shocked…it was just like the commercials on TV…I kept thinking…I’m done…I’m done…and I had to wonder…should I read a book…take a quiz to see if I’m Mamalicious…or squirt my husband with a water gun…

Bertha…said…no…just blog about it…then she said some more stuff about the wisdom of doing things when I feel inspired…instead of trying to force myself to do them when I don’t…and how much better things seem to go…

Hmmm…I think she’s right…after all…I’m done
