Day Eighty One.

    This morning was very busy. I got up at a decent time and took a few minutes to enjoy my coffee in front of the Christmas tree before I started doing what I had planned. The biggest thing I wanted to get done was to clean the floors. Today was the first day I used my Swiffer WetJet to clean the hardwood floors. It said you can use it on finished hardwood floors and I thought doing the entire house would be too large of a job to just do it all by hand....which is what I usually do, but not all at once. It worked pretty well....the floors look nice and they aren't overly slippery. It certainly saved me a lot of time but it still took a while. After that I did a lot more organizing and put the kitchen table back in its appropriate spot. I ended up moving a lot of things around in the kitchen and I really like the way it turned out. It all looks so much more neat and clean!
    Once I was done all of that I took the trash, started a load of laundry and then finally got in the shower. After my shower I unloaded the dishwasher and had lunch. One of the worst parts of evening week is how tired I get even before I go to work. I did get a second wind once I got to work and that was a good thing because it sure was a busy evening! There were certain times which I wasn't getting anything done at all because I kept getting distracted....ugh, annoying!
    When I got home from work tonight I did some more online shopping for Christmas presents and I sure hope everything I bought gets here on time. If this was a normal Christmas schedule I would be way ahead as far as presents are concerned! I can't forget that I also have to wrap the presents before next weekend as well. I must say that I am really looking so forward to the coming weekend with my sisters. We usually have the whole Thanksgiving weekend together and because this year was just one day and my twin wasn't there, I am missing them terribly.  It's just so easy being around my family and with my Mom in Florida I am definitely feeling like I need to be around the people I love the most. The last thing I want to talk about tonight are my hands. I was in a seat tonight which makes me really prone to washing them a lot and it shows. There are a lot of situations coming up this December in which I really don't want to have embarrassing, red, swollen hands for and I need to try to be more strict with myself about monitoring how much I wash. Well, that's it. I'll let you know how I do tomorrow with the hand washing!
