I can spoil a whole day putting them off and letting them hang over me. I like your idea of getting those done first. Enjoyed visiting your blog very much!Lalleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11299403428288111249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29559473.post-3272664699840403922007-04-03T23:07:00.000-04:002007-04-03T23:07:00.000-04:00Just the pep talk I needed!

I am SOOOO with you on the floors!!!!!!!! O...OH!!! I am SOOOO with you on the floors!!!!!!!! Once I have to start mopping, it seems like the floor goes on forever and ever!!! Mopping is the WORST job to me so I have to remind myself how nice the floors will look when I'm done and how wonderful the house will smell with a freshly mopped floor. Plus, I now have the extra motivation because I do NOT want Elizabeth's knees to get brown from crawling on a dirty floor! HAHA!! How embarrassing THAT would be!! :)<BR/><BR/>His,<BR/>Mrs. Utheupshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16923593457352365778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29559473.post-3055127532707307752007-04-03T09:00:00.000-04:002007-04-03T09:00:00.000-04:00Attitude is everything!

I always do the chore I hate the most first and get it out of the way.

Yep, I know sweeping is the super easiest chore of all. And I do it every single day. BUT, I get an awful bad back when I sweep! Does anyone else?? I am not sure why that is. Maybe I do too good of a job. Rob says I'll probably end up dying with a broom in my hand because I always seem to have a broom but yet it gives me so much pain, literally.<BR/>I dont mind mopping with a mop and fresh scented water.Im too fussy about doing it on my hands and knees though. Every now and then I will because the baseboards need a good cleaning.<BR/>But its really sweeping that pains me the most.<BR/><BR/>Great post and I will try to change my attitude now about sweeping. Anyone have any tips or ideas on how NOT to get a bad back when sweeping??Candyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13447740118288835239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29559473.post-49889192720654280592007-04-02T16:20:00.000-04:002007-04-02T16:20:00.000-04:00Susan, thank you for your support and prayers, and...Susan, thank you for your support and prayers, and sweet encouragements. You are such a sweet gal! <BR/>I think that floors are my most disliked job around here, too. I clean them, and with a dog in the house, they're dirty again 5 minutes later. I read a book a few years ago where the author was teaching her children about "chores", but she called them "service opportunities".<BR/><BR/>I have to remember the attitude, also. I will use your tips for this! Thank you for posting this today. A fresh outlook of appreciation.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09538317661391712309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29559473.post-31149513704864897082007-04-02T15:53:00.000-04:002007-04-02T15:53:00.000-04:00Ahh, the dreaded floors, I would have to say this ...Ahh, the dreaded floors, I would have to say this is one of my least favorite chores as well. That and dusting (because of allergies). But you have a good outlook and a good plan to tackle this not so fun job. Get it done first and don't dread it all day long. That is what I try to do too, get the worst part over and enjoy the rest of the day:) But I would rather do this than go to the dentist...since I do have a dentist appointment in the morning, for a filling...:( NO fun.Christie Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10131377798582160855noreply@blogger.com
