Spring Cleaning me.

Good morning world.  Spring cleaning in full force around here.  Started in our computer room/office.  Moving furniture around, adding some things, taking some out.  Next will be either the bathroom, which I have pretty much done in February.  Just needs some touch up.  Or possibly the kitchen.  How do you spring clean? For the most part, I go room to room.  But right now, it seems my whole house is one big mess.  Some of the things I want to get rid of are residing in the dining room waiting to be taken out.  Monday is a big laundry day and yesterday was no exception.  But it did not quite get finished.  That is something I have yet to work out.  When the seasonal things come up, keeping up with the daily and weekly duties.  But as I have said before, I am on a journey. 

I do the usual though, start at the top and work my way down.  Dust everything before I vacuum or sweep.  Pulling furniture out, sweep under or behind, polish wood furniture, clean off knick knacks before they get put back, dust walls before furniture gets put back.  The one thing I plan on doing better about is washing my windows.  I use to be much better about keeping them clean.  Here not so much.  Not sure why either.  Just have to decide to get it done.  Add it to my spring cleaning list is a first step I guess. 

In the deep cleaning mode, I have been thinking about deep cleaning myself.  Are "things" perfect in my life?  No, life happens.  It gets messy at times.  Feelings get hurt, sometimes to the point of anger.  How I react to life is my responsibility.  I am not always good at responding instead of reacting.  However, I have Jesus to help me at all times.  He will always forgive, so who am I to not forgive?  Or even ask for forgiveness.  There are times that I am not able to physically ask someone for forgiveness.  But that does not mean I don't ask Jesus for forgiveness in that situation. 

Be blessed and be a blessing,

Just some of my thoughts and actions,

Elizabeth
