Sometimes I am stressed up by the thoughts of having to clean up or clear them, but when I started doing so, it feels good. And when the cleaning or clearing are done, there is a great sense of accomplishment. Enjoy our spring cleaning :) Good of you to be able to find spring cleaning a therapy :)

It seems to help burn off some of the energy a bit. Plus, as you said, you get instant gratification. I clean like a mad person when I’m manic. It seems to help burn off some of the energy a bit.

The only problem I have is that within 10 minutes, the house will look like I did nothing. AAaarrggh!

I tend to shrink and look for an escape, which usually comes in the form of blog reading, computer games, a good book, or food and wine. All of these things combined add up to bring me a big butt and messy house, which, you guessed it! STRESSES ME OUT. :-) I wish I cleaned when I was stressed out!

I can't wait for the 60 degree weather to fling open these windows and air out this house. I'm slowly going through each room, doing one major project at a time, hopefully to get it done by Sat when hubby comes home from Neb. Geesh! Can someone tell me where all this dust came from? Didn't I just clean the fireplace mantle last month? Oh, yes, it’s that time of the year here too. I can’t wait for the 60 degree weather to fling open these windows and air out this house.

It drives me nutty to have that floor plan. It isn't ever as clean and neat as I would like it... Our laundry room not only leads to the garage, but also the guest bathroom.

Instead I find that it stresses me out...I hate it so much. I wonder if it's because I felt like a slave as a kid...doing all the cleaning all the time? I don't know.

Funny isn't it.:) Our house is pretty messy right now so I must be relaxed.:) I was looking through my homeschool stuff and realized I have some curriculum you all may be interested in if you decide you need a curriculum for math or science.
