picking up speed

Madelyn is somewhere in Iowa, driving a car packed full of her worldly belongings, moving here. I am frantically trying to get everything in order. Because the last thing a person needs after driving thousands of miles is to find a place for her stuff among piles of half-finished centerpieces, magazine cutouts and crafting supplies all over the place. Plus there's a big deadline tomorrow for which I am not nearly as prepared as I should be, 24 hours out.

So as much as I would love to spend an hour writing a post to get me motivated, I should really get going. That bathroom is not going to clean itself.

Drive safe, Madelyn!

Haha, Once, when my cousin from New York was visiting, while she was unloading her stuff in the guest room, I was still scrubbing the bathroom.

That's very nice of you; I'm sure she'll appreciate your sparkly-clean abode.

That being said, if one of my friends or family ever moves cross-country and has to stay with me, I'm letting them know upfront how not clean it's going to be when they arrive.
