Getting It Done!

Did you ever wake up and find that even though you hadn’t slept particularly well the night before, and even tough you really hate house work, you suddenly find that after two cups of coffee you have the energy of a teenager?

That’s what happened to me today. I finished my breakfast and I was off. I vacuumed and dusted (a dreaded task), I cleaned out the fireplace, and also watered my plants.

I found myself flitting from one room to the next cleaning, dusting and putting things away! This is not me. On a good day I move around slowly and if I actually get something accomplished, well, that’s a great day.

Today I got a lot done, and I made a fabulous dinner for Hubby at the end of the day! Tonight I am sitting in a clean house, with vacuumed floors and dusted shelves and yes, a fireplace that is clean and has a pretty white birch log in there, “just for display”.

Ah, life is good!

Anneliese is nearing the end of her heat and I have to tell you, I will miss her in her little pants! Now doesn’t she look cute?

She has been a good girl, and pretty easy to cope with during this heat. In many ways better than Greta. We brought her with us yesterday when we went out to look at furniture. She was so good in the car, even when we left her for about half an hour to grab some lunch. Of course the cookie we brought her when we came out did a lot to make her day. In fact right after that we stopped at a shop to look at their recliners and when we came back to the car Anneliese was looking for her cookie!

Oh, they sure do learn fast!

  1. I am usually full of energy when I get up but certainly not for household stuff ! I write my posts while I drink my coffee. I am already tired by reading what you all have done, lol !
    Anneliese really looks very cute in her little pants !

  2. Maribeth… you have got to be the only person on the PLANET who says they will MISS their dog being in HEAT!!! ROFL!!! She’s adorable – but I would NEVER miss those pants! Congrats on the clean house! Way to go! I wish a day like that would hit me!!!

  3. She has such cute little pants, do you put a little pad in them, or are they disposable?

    If you’ve ever got extra energy like that come over to my place 😉

  4. Energy, who needs it? It is SO over rated isn’t it?

    Like yesterday for example. Sat night saw us at a wedding, of which I was the MC. So Sunday (yesterday for me now) we were very much, very tired. So what did we do, rest, No! Watch some tv, Not likely!! We took off to the hardware store, bought some paint and bits n pieces and decieded to renovate our bedroom! One of the wall vents has slowley been lifting off, so rather than wait for it to fall of, it is now off, area taped and plastered and today, in about 2 hours as it is only 6am on a holiday Monday, I will start rubbing it back before painting, YEAH!

    So who needs energy!
