This morning I had a wonderful visit from a young woman I have known for a long time. She came today bearing all her cleaning equipment.........and then proceeded to clean my whole house; from top to bottom.... everywhere.
I am overwhelmed with her labor of love!
I have done the chores that help Bill and I get by, so has he-I love to clean but not being able to run the big vacuum or bend and scrub sure does mean that the house is getting ahead of me!
I even fell asleep for a while and she kept working away........all day!
(She did let me give her a break for lunch and to share a small candy bar!)
Every little while, I would get to work with her on some chore-it was so encouraging to see the house get deep cleaned and have the pleasure of doing it with another woman!
Throughout the day I would cut a fat quarter into apple core pieces with the accuquilt.......by the end of the day, I had these cut and laid out but I will have to work on rearranging them tomorrow morning as I couldn't bend by the end of the day! This scattered way gives the lay-out size and now I can organize which one goes where to look its best! Remember, step by step the project gets done!
THANK YOU SO MUCH , JESSICA!!!!
(PS-she gifted me my own Swiffer duster which has an extended handle-I will be able to reach so much without a step stool!--yippee!)

What a lovely gift!
ReplyDeleteI've just discovered the wonder of a Swifter myself. Those dusting sheets are perfect for clearing away all this indoor pollen the animals drag in. Your friend is an angel!
How wonderful! I am so thankful for her tangible expression of love!
ReplyDeleteI love how God sends us people when we need them most :)
ReplyDeleteAnd she brings hugs from those far away. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful gift! Oh, and your quilt top looks very pretty!
ReplyDeleteNo need to thank me; you are very welcome. Anytime you need me I will come. Thanks for the great day!
ReplyDeleteGod bless you, Jessica, and thank you from a friend who can't do anything practical!
ReplyDeleteStep by step is the best way, I agree. That's how I can cope with working on more than one project at a time -- if I have the right coloured thread in the machine and the pieces are ready to go, it all comes together so much better!
