I Must Brag on Myself

I just scrubbed my bathroom for 2 hours!!! I am beyond proud, since this is the first housecleaning effort I've made in quite some time. I even got out a toothbrush to scrub in between the tiles, which I never do. My philosophy is if it doesn't come off with a regular sized scrubber, it's probably too small to be harmful. This time, however, the bathroom was getting beyond gross, and I had an unexpected burst of energy, so I went for it.

Also, I ate an egg roll for dinner, and it stayed down! Small victories - I'll take them where I can get them. It was a refreshing change from soup and toasted sandwiches.

Also, we took Christa on her first train ride at the mall tonight. She's definitely at that age where she expresses her opinions on what she wants to do. As soon as she saw it, she pointed and gestured, and wouldn't calm down until we sat down in our car. It was a pretty neat little ride, but they charge for the adults too. I would probably let her ride more often if I could ride for free to ensure her safety. But they didn't ask my opinion when they set their pricing.

Wow - this is the latest I've been up in weeks. I'd better go to bed soon, or my body won't know what to do when Christa gets me up in the morning and I haven't gotten the full twelve hours of sleep I've been accustomed to. I shall sleep proudly, knowing that I wasn't a completely lazy bum today :)

Brag away.... 2 hours is a long time to be cleaning anything, especially a bathroom. Maybe this is a sign of things to come. Hopefully you will be feeling better and less nauseated soon. Let's make plans soon for a play date. Call me and let me know what works for you.

Well I recently had a breakthrough...I rather clean my bathrooms than do laundry. Its a great feeling when you get to clean something really good.
