Grandma Lane or Just Call Me Florence

(I've been working on this post for awhile. )
I remember my Grandma Lane's kitchen always looking like this. Yes, I am going to blame this on heredity! Her counter, stove, refrigerator and table were always full of 'stuff'. She WAS a busy women.

The ability to clutter flat areas, make piles balance precariously, and save useless objects because 'that might be useful someday' has been genetically past down through the bloodlines of my father's family. I constantly fight against this tendency. I lose more often than I win. But I fight the fight!

That is until I get sick.....After a week or so of not feeling well this is what my kitchen counters looked like. This is a sampling....I have 3 counter spaces this size. I think I could make a case for abiogenesis.

















This week's mission in life has been to clean this area.
Mission accomplished!
YEAH!
See the empty basket on the right? That holds the household papers that need to be filed.
It holds a whole year's worth!

Like I said, "I've been working on this post for awhile."
