Cold but Clean

Hi Ladies!

Not gonna lie, I'm getting so sick of the cold weather we've been having!  It's the coldest winter in 9 years. Our temperatures have been around -2F and Tuesday is supposed to feel like -22F!  After I got off the train I walk 20 minutes to work, I'm grateful for the exercise, but dressing for it is not fun.  Sorry to start off complaining, it's just getting to me!

Because of the cold all I've wanted to do is huddle under a blanket, drink tea and watch TV.  Today I actually got stuff done!  I'd been wanting to give my kitchen a good clean for awhile, and today it finally happened.  I cleaned off the top of the fridge, decluttered the counters, wiped down the cabinets, cleaned out the toaster (it was really gross-embarassingly so!), I pulled out the chest of drawers and cabinet and cleaned behind there.  Finally I cleaned the garbage lid, swept and mopped the floor.  I feel like I have a new kitchen!



We had a nice quiet weekend.  Last weekend we drove up to Kingston (the city we lived in when we went to university) and had great visits with friends.  We got back late Sunday night, and starting work on Monday morning was not so fun.  I felt like I started my week tired, so by the end of the week I was so ready for Friday.  This weekend I got to sleep, go for a walk (short because of the cold, but still a walk), and do some cleaning.  We also went to a Murder Mystery dinner party last night with Justin's extended family.  It was so much fun!  We had done it last year and Justin had been the murderer, and he ended up being the murderer again this year!  

In other news, Justin had two job interviews last week.  Both of the jobs are in different cities, so it would mean big changes for us.  He already heard back from one that he didn't get it, but the other one has asked him for a second interview.  At first I really didn't like the idea of a possible move (just because we've moved so much), but the more I thought about it, the more at peace I've become.  Every move we've had, everything has worked out.  God had gone before us, and found us a place to live, a good church, and friends.  So we'll see what happens! 

I hope you ladies have a good week and enjoy your "warm" weather in Washington!

  2. Your kitchen looks amazing. I totally understand not wanting to do anything besides cuddle under a blanket with that weather, I can't even imagine feeling like -22, I would want to hide forever. So good to hear from you!
