back in the saddle

I spent our first full week of summer vacation sick with some horrific virus. It amazes me just how much it takes to get the house back in shape after the mom has been out of commission, or rather just how much I do each and every day to keep this house in shape.

Have no fear: Mom is back. Much to my children's dismay.

They've cleaned all the shutters on the front of the house today. We are all in our quite corners awaiting the next 20 minute attack on another area of the house.

Hmmmmmm???? What shall it be?
