The result? My dishwasher never got emptied. More dirty dishes piled up. A terrible clutter took over the kitchen and family room. My house was a shambles.
This morning I did the same driving, but I did not come home and drop comatose into my chair. I unloaded the dishwasher, reloaded it, and did the other dishes. I cleared away the clutter (except for the Nerf gun darts which seem to always litter our floor). I even took all the recyclables out of the house. My house isn't anywhere near perfect, but it's much better than it was yesterday.
If only I could be as productive every morning. Alas, there's no telling when I will again come home and take root in my chair instead of doing something worthwhile.

My fight with the inner slob is daily. Feels good to win, though.
A glimpse of productivity is always so inspiring.
Way to go, Laura. We just have to take things one day at a time!
Love your blog!! You make me want to do better on mine! Too many mornings I feel like doing the same thing after I have everybody off to school. If only the clock would stop for just a few hours each morning so I could catch a quick nap!
Thanks for the comment, Tricia! I'll be checking out your blog now.
When I read about your kitchen, I thought, "Which Clutter? Jeffrey? Scott? Brian? Even Kimberly??" Goes to show you how important punctuation is. If only I had noticed the lower case "c".
You are an inspiration to me!! It only took one day? Amazing.
We don't use the word "clutter" that way... Tsk Tsk Tsk I have only been away a short time and already...
