Finally!

by GettingFreedom on March 17, 2009

It’s sad, but it’s true. I don’t think I can remember the last time I could see the top of my kitchen table. It pains me, because this is where we are suppossed to be eating supper, but it has been taken over with my seed collection.

It’s bad.

This picture was even snapped after I cleaned some stuff off of it.

Notice the dirt mess, too?!

I’m a bit embarassed.

But, not anymore!

This is what she looks like right now!

Don’t mind that on the bench behind the table, I have placed all my seeds while they are waiting patiently to go outside to the greenhouse. Or wherever I decide to stash them until planting time.

Funny, my husband just called and I told him you could see our table. He couldn’t believe it!

That is when you know it really is bad!

While I was at it, I scrubbed down the wall, and the floors. Everything is so sparkly and ready for our St. Patrick’s Day Feast.

Glad I got that tackled! Now, if only I could find the top of my desk. ;)

Be sure to check out what others are tackling this week over at Tackle it Tuesday.

Good for you! I’m the same, my seed-starting stuff seems to take over the house. It’s always such a relief to get things transplanted outside…too bad that’s still over a month away!

Oh, I bet that feels good. Great job! Our seeds are growing like crazy. They’ve hit the top of my mini greenhouse!

Mine has been covered in saws and sawdust. Then I had to get hubby to clean it off so I could have room to cool the cakes for a wedding cake I was making. I finally got it cleaned off from THAT yesterrday. It was covered in cake crumbs and cooling racks from Thurs – Mon! We ate dinner on it last night :)

I couldn’t tell you the last time we used our dining room table for dining. Stacking, piling, and collecting is what it does best!

I saw your link on Blissfully Domestic, and I’m glad I stopped by. Good job. Isn’t cleaning up a good feeling.

I love our pub-style dining table and I’m very protective of it. When we moved our teen actually wrapped the chairs in mattress bags. He even wrapped the legs with foam. lol
Congratulation on getting the table claared. I love a cleared table.

I always clean off my kitchen table just before my husband comes in from work each day…Maybe he thinks it’s been clean all day :)
