Making A Happy Home Monday!!!
Posted on December 01, 2008
I came across this “carnival” when I was visiting links on other blogs. I have been wanting to get some things done around the house and what better motivation that being able to share my projects with all of you!!!
Just like last time, I was a little embarrassed to even post this picture, it’s really bad! This is the telephone stand that is in between my kitchen and living room. It was a wreck!!! It tends to be a “catch-all” place when we need to put somethig down, but don’t really know where to put it or don’t have time to take care of it, we lay it here and then it gets piled up…
So, every couple weeks or so I unpile it and it looks great agan!! Let’s see if we can keep it this way for a while 
Make sure you come back to see what else I’ve got going on!!! To see more Make a Happy Home ideas visit LL @ As for Me and My House We Will Serve The Lord!!
Making a Happy Home Monday…
Posted on November 24, 2008
OK, so this is my very first Making a Happy Home post!! I came across this “carnival” when i was visiting links on other blogs. I have been wanting to get some things done around the house and what better motivation that being able to share my projects with all of you!!!
So my first project was this…
I was a little embarrassed to even post this picture, it’s really bad! This are the book shelves that were in the room we were using as a computer room/den/office. In the process of getting this disaster cleaned up, hubby and I decided to switch our bedroom and the den (the den, we discovered, is about a foot bigger in each direction that the bedroom!!). So this room is now my bedroom and this is what that wall looks like now…
And the bookshelves got moved into what is now the den. And this is what they look like now…
Not bad, huh? Now it’s not completely done yet, but we don’t have much more to do!! I have a few other projects I’m working on too. But those will have to wait for another Making a Happy Home Monday, make sure you come back to see what I’ve got going on!!!

Thursday- dust, vacuum, sweep/mop kitchen and bathroom, CLEAN bathroom

no more dust bunnies…
Posted on August 25, 2008i LOVE a clean house! i don’t always love to clean…but i LOVE a clean house!! if you don’t have time to do an all out, no holds barred cleaning spree, just take a few minutes to “unclutter”. like yesterday, i wiped down and rearranged my counter tops so that the things i want to use more are more accessible to me. and then today, i cleaned up a spot in my dining room that collects EVERYTHING. i put everything in its proper place and threw away the junk that was just taking up space. so later tonight or tomorrow when i do have the time to do some hard core cleaning, all i will have to do is clean the bathroom , do a quick dusting job and run the vacuum. aaaaahhhhhhhhh clean house. lol i love a clean house! not a bad way to do it either, a little at a time. i find that if i do it that way…i don’t get overwhelmed with a long tiring day of work!! give it a try!! schedule one room per day or just do one “chore ” at a time. like totally clean the living room one day ( dust, vacuum, clean off TV and other entertainment stuff, wash windows, fluff pillows, clean blinds, etc.) then the bedroom the next day…one room per day. OR go through and dust every room one day . the next day vacuum all the rooms. so forth and so on. which ever you choose, it will be better than tackling all of it in one day! hope this helps others as much as it has helped me!
a clean house…
Posted on July 12, 2008i LOVE a clean house! i don’t always love to clean…but i LOVE a clean house!! thurs. my daughter went to a friends house to spend the night. chuck (aka buster, my husband) and i went out for dinner and saw a movie, but before we went i took a few minutes to “unclutter”. you know, clear the dining room table of every thing that gets dropped there all week, take care of folded laundry, wipe down the counters and arrange the stuff on the counter…. so then yesterday all i had to do was clean the bathroom , do a quick dusting job and run the vacuum. aaaaahhhhhhhhh clean house. THEN this morning i got up…made breakfast for the fam and myself (love to that on the weekends!!). then hannah and i decided to clean out the fridge. what a mess that was. jelly all over the walls and shelves…blood form meat thawing , little bits of this and that stuck to the jelly and blood, and who knows what the clear gel stuff was?????????????? so we took all the shelves and drawers out, put them in the bath tub and washed them all off. put them back in and reloaded them. aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh clean fridge. lol i love a clean house! and a clean fridge! not a bad way to do it either, a little at a time. i find that if i do it that way…i don’t get overwhelmed with a long tiring day of work!! give it a try!! schedule one room per day or just do one “chore ” at a time. like totally clean the living room one day ( dust, vacuum, clean off tv and other entertainment stuff, wash windows, fluff pillows, clean blinds, etc.) then the bedroom the next day…one room per day. OR go through and dust every room one day . the next day vacuum all the rooms. so forth and so on. which ever you choose, it will be better than tackling all of it in one day! hope this helps others as much as it has helped me!
just another day…
Posted on July 09, 2008aaahhh a bright new day…filled with the joys of a wife and mother….lets see. today i shall be cleaning the bathroom, dusting, vacuuming, oh and we mustn’t forget the mountain of laundry awaiting us in the deep dark dungeon we call our basement!! i cant seem to get rid of this lingering headache I’ve had for about a week. its not one of those headaches that pounds and makes your head feel like its going to explode…its just one of those annoying ones that hurts just enough to let you know you have a headache and doesn’t give you any relief at all. i think i need a chiropractic adjustment.
