Clean Peace

HAPPY FRIDAY TO ALL.  A special happy hello to folks dropping by from New Friend Friday!  Welcome -glad to see ya'!  We've made it another week, and I'm SO happy it's the weekend!  Got lots to do and not enough days to do it {especially moving slowly due to an ouchy back!}.

I mentioned in a couple of posts {and by a couple I mean three or four -sorry if you're sick of this topic...} that I like to clean.  Not on an every day basis {which WILL be changing, much to Michael's disappointment -mwaaahahahaha}, but when I clean - it's like a whirlwind.  I get sick of seeing what I see and go into clean mode.  My seester and I have decided that this is a "Reichgott" thing {Reichgott being my maiden name -yeah -hard, right?  She and our mother are also a cleaning maniacs}, and that we're not happy with just "picked up."  If anythig's going to be clean, it's going to be "Reichgott" clean.  There will be no dust or crumbs on the kitchen counters.  No fingerprints on any of the doors, and definitely NO food stains on any appliances or cabinets.  The floor boards will be dusted and scrubbed, and if that spot on the floor doesn't come up well...good thing you still have some plastic knives from that cook out because you'll be using one to get that gunk up!

This is me.  Don't I look awesome? :}

This is absolutely crazy, right?  I don't think so, but the look on my husband's face when I go from 0 to 60 "Reichgott" clean mode is one of sheer awe and terror combined.  I actually quite enjoy it....

So as I was laying in bed very awake at 2:00 am, I was thinking about how much Peace I get from having a well cleaned house {a very common discussion in our household.  Apparently men have these filtering glasses that shade out all of the crud and allows them to focus on that one clean spot on the sofa next to the remote. *giggles sarcastically*}.  It's like I can fall asleep {I cannot fall asleep while in clean mode.  I basically fall into bed when necessary while in this state of existance} and have a better morning because I'm not looking at stuff everywhere.  I need peace in my life and I'm going to have it, by golly!  Plus -do you know how many calories you burn whilst cleaning?  Score!



I hope everyone has an awesome Friday!  I'm definitely workin' for the weekend!  :}
