Before and Afters of a Humbling Cleaning Day

Something To Do...
There’s work for the hand and there’s work for the heart,
something to do, something to do;
and each should be busy performing his part,
there’s something for all to do
The sick must be soothed and the hungry be fed,

something to do, something to do;

The naked be clothed and the erring be led,

there’s something for all to do.

The Master says “work” and has shown us the way,

something to do, something to do;

He says “not tomorrow the time is today”

there’s something for all to do.

There’s work for for the aged

and work for the young,

there’s work for us all

and excuses for none;

There’s work for the feeble and work for the strong;

there’s something for all to do.

You sure are humble but loved the "after" pictures. Things have been a little that way here too since Brittney is gone (now helping you). No excuses though, we just have a touch of laziness here and it is time to get a grip on it. :-) Can anyone else relate?

Love you,

I had been meaning to post those pics for a long time but my computer would freeze up 3-4 pics into it. Those pics were taken the day I was getting ready for you guys to come, Mom.

I always need good reminders too Monica!

Wow -- you sure whipped your house into shape! And yes, we have days like that, too! I loved the little glimpse into what your Lincoln home looks like; your decorating skills are so beautiful and 'home-y.' We miss you here in Seward!
