Each room hold laughter and every window open to great possibility.

I love going home!   I love being home.  I consider my home a sanctuary and a wonderful place to restore and renew and rest.  While I cannot once every recall being called a domestic goddess by anyone…I do consider the opportunity to do housework an investment in my joy. 

That said – I must also confess cleaning is not my favorite thing. But I love the result and the outcomes and have strategized, over the years, certain attitudes to make the tasks something I want to do.  One’s attitude toward any thing – house work, school work or tax work – can be based on a commitment toward an outcome, not the actual task itself.  And
a clean and tidy house is an outcome I treasure.
