Like My Housekeeping?

"If you're messy and you know it,
Then you really ought to show it. . .
If you're messy and you know it,
Clap your hands!"



Actually, there's really a reason for all this. . . My old (maybe 40 years) cabinets, painted over and over, kitchen cabinets are going to be replaced! Good-bye sawdust, every time I pull out a kitchen drawer!



. . . but I really am messy, and I embrace my Inner Messiness!



Run! Martha! Run!

How exciting that you are getting new kitchen cabinets! Every time I go to Home Depot I look at all the special drawers and cabinets that are available and I start drooling.

I'm drooling right now over your Calphalon set! I've gotten mine one pot at a time. Aren't they wonderful?

Being neat is a fight against entropy, and I'm convinced it's unnatural. The question I'm always asking myself is what robs me of my energy more: Living with mess or keeping the mess at bay? I haven't figured it out yet . . .

You call that messy...well, I call that homey! :) It's hard to be comfortable in a too-clean environment where you worry about messing something up. I would be so comfy in your home! And I'm so excited for you to get new cabinets!! You'll have to post pics of that FOR SURE! :)

It's always hard when you're in the middle of a project and everything feels out of place-- but so worth it in the end. Love the song!

Hooray for the new cabinets! That is going to be a welcome sight to you all winter long.

Just remember---creative minds are rarely tidy. (That's my justification, at least.)
