When We're Helping We're Happy...

... and we sing as we go. For we like to help mother for we all love her so! Today we worked hard! I got 4 hours of housework out of the older boys. We attacked the PG house today. We got there at 11 a.m. Nolan went to piano and returned around 12:30 p.m. I let Jonathan doink around while Nolan was gone. Then it was lunch time, followed by KIITG (Kick It Into Gear) time. The worked from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Nolan cleaned every set of blinds in the house... 10 2" horizontal blinds. Then he finished sorting the last of the stuff in his room... keep, DI, or trash. Then he helped watch Miles. Jonathan washed every wall in the house. Then he washed the inside of every window in the house. He cleaned all the mirrors. Then he took care of the last stuff left in his room and watched Miles too! As for me... I just watched them work! Hahaha! No, I cleaned the storage room. Collected all the odds-and-ins together. Vacuumed some, did some baseboards, cleaned a toilet and tub, cleaned the stove, washed the refridgerator, washed out the kitchen cabinets, then cleaned all the window sills and tracks (yuck... my least favorite job in the world). We made great progress. Hopefully tomorrow, we can finish the baseboards, attack some grout, wipe out the oven, and check the doors and doorframes for fingerprints. Then, all that's left to do it the touch-up painting, clean the Pergo and tile floors, and get the house rented! The end is in sight!
