Living Simply...

 Hello! Well, we are at another end of the week here in Gulf Shores. Life is keeping us pretting busy....
With lots of cleaning, yes...it is my goal to stay on top of the cleaning while we are here. I have heard it said many times that the longer you do something, eventually it becomes a habit...so, I'm trying to start wonderful habits. So far so good.
I'm also thankful for wonderful helpers... 

This colander was quite clean to say the least. She spent at least ten minutes cleaning it.
I am also thankful for this man. I love it when he comes home from work, and love the weekends even more because he is home.

We've also stayed busy going to the library/story time twice a week. We are being spoiled, for sure. We LOVE books and it shows...




Animal crackers make it even more special, wouldn't you say?



Craft times are fun...


So, it's Friday and it's our cleaning day. (I am working on eventually getting all the cleaning done throughout the week and just spot check on Friday, but those are details I am working on..we do lots of cleaning throughout the week already, but I guess I'm talking deep cleaning.) 

So,we are going to get the cleaning done early today and maybe hit up the beach later, and possibly a park, and Books-A-Million to top things off (like I said...we love books).

 I am thankful that we don't have a lot of "things" here in Gulf Shores..I prefer to live simply. In fact, when we return to Chattanooga I will be gutting the house as much as possible. I will be doing some serious Spring cleaning! 

 So, cleaning here in Gulf Shores has been much more manageable, which makes me happy. Having ADD makes it very challenging to stay on top of the cleaning scene if I feel so overwhelmed, so keeping the stuff to a minimum, in addition to spreading out the cleaning throughout the week, like Rocky suggested many moons ago, will help me stay focused.

  Speaking of living simply..check out our simple living room "furniture" set up. 

Love the simplicity of it...really!


Have a wonderful Friday and a blessed Sabbath!

Love, Kelly
