Hamburger or Hot Dog?

Alone in the house I decided to start on some serious spring goal lists. I got a lot done today. More than I ever get done in a single day. Because I got so much done, I felt the need to share it with you, my dear friends. I need a pat on the back.

I managed to do a detailed clean of the kitchen including inside the oven. I did the bathroom with the toilet, the bathroom with the bath, the fridge closet. I planted carrots, broccoli, and beets. I took the cloche covering off the strawberry plants in hopes for some bee pollination to occur. I trimmed all of the bonsais (even the Canadian larch forest!). I did 4 loads of laundry and made it to the bottom of the basket… it only took 3 months! It is all hanging on the line right now. The warm spring sun removing all perfumed soaps and leaving only clean country air in our fabrics. I disinfected our new baby crib. I talked to my mum for an hour. I plucked my eyebrows! I even took time to have a nice cup of tea. If every day could be this productive my house might actually look clean. Alas, these days come only once in a while so I need to clean ‘till I drop. That is where I am now... dropping, slowly. The birds are having a party in our backyard and I have left the kitchen door open so I can listen to their song as I melt.

Every now and then I feel the baby move. It is all getting a bit more real. Perhaps that is why I was into cleaning up so much today. With baby furniture starting to slowly make its way into the house, I may be what they call… nesting! Our next scan is on Tuesday. If all goes well, we will find out the sex of our kid!

So what do you think it will be… a hamburger or a hot dog?
