Time for Refurbishing

                                                                                        (All the pretty plates need a good washing.)


Before getting into today's post, I'd like to ask those of you who pray to put in some extra prayers for Claudia, a wonderful woman and fellow blogger.

Claudia is battling cancer and needs an army of prayers said in her behalf.

Remember, it has been said that prayer can move mountains!

Her blog is Claudia's Page.

Thank you.  

Let's fill her world with prayer!

And now, for today's post:


For more than a week now, I've been battling a sore throat and a really awful cough.

Consequently, I took my sick self out onto the side porch to  lay down on a wicker settee.

It was a very comforting thing to do because the room is filled with beautiful light.

It also gave me a very different view of all the cleaning and straightening that needs to be done out on the side porch.

Hutch contents need to be removed and washed:

Whew.  Looking at things from a horizontal position was  a real eye-opener.

Cushions could use a washing, too, and floor, a good sweeping:

Plant is dusty, too:

As soon as I feel 100 percent well again, it'll be out to the side porch I go.

DO YOU ENJOY HOUSECLEANING?
