How I did it
It made me
happy sigh 
How I did it: Cleared out most furniture, vacuumed, rented a Rug Dr. Took a few hours and is going to take at least a day to dry. I was surprised at how fast the tank emptied and I had the big machine. Its not hard just kind of a pain to lug the machine up and down stairs. Read how I did it…
It made me
its done 
How I did it: I found out about a job the day before it closed. I just had to sit down and do it. Easy, Peasy. I had to re-do my letterhead and the margins were giving me hell. Other than that no prob. Read how I did it…
It made me
Yay!
How I did it: I threw out almost everything. Most of it needed to be thrown. Wiped down everything. Now it contains water and a slice of lemon cake. Perhaps my next task will be grocery shopping. Read how I did it…

Was planning on starting class on Weds. It has no been canceled due to lack of interest. But hey thats ok. I’m going to check out a dance troupe in July. I saw them preform and they take new members so we’ll see. I’m not sure performing is something I want to do, but… it could be an amazing experience and hey they aren’t going to have me dance if I don’t know what the hell I’m doing. So July 2nd a Thursday. That means I’d have to switch the days I have my kids. It wouldn’t be a problem, might actually work out better. Having them Mon/Weds rather than Tues/Thurs since I have them all day on Monday anyway. This could work. I’m excited.
