Enjoying the ordinary

The last few days have been gorgeous, 

lovely and sunny with a bit of a breeze.

Well quite a breeze at times if I am being perfectly honest.

I thoroughly enjoy these mornings, 

this is when I get motivated

 to get things done around the house.

Every winter I promise myself that

 I will do all sorts of indoor chores 

so that I don't need to spend my time 

indoors when the warmer weather arrives.

We have a long, usually wet and cold winter.

With a correspondingly short, sometimes hot summer.

The winter chore thing doesn't happen very often 

although I did get my kitchen cupboards

 cleaned and cleared out this year.

So on Monday when the morning was so warm 

and sunny I was primed and ready to go.

Monday is wash day and bed change day, and silly

 as it may sound, I love pegging washing on the line. 

It was all out on the line and back in before lunch.

(folded and put away, as well, if I may skite).

I did my usual big weekly house clean,

 singing away to myself, and finished icing a

 Christmas cake I had made for a function for yesterday.

I drank coffee and chatted with my GKB 

out in the morning sun before the day got too hot

and finished washing down my kitchen walls and cupboard doors.

Then later in the afternoon I spent a little time in the garden. 

I had to find shady places to work though 

as it was really hot by then. So I really enjoyed 

my Monday at home and I hope you can find

 enjoyment in the ordinary, everyday things as well.
