corner view ≈ small things

today i cleaned the curb. i was getting a little restless for the chores still awaiting inside and i wanted to escape to smaller things {is cleaning a big thing, or is it smalls?}. i managed to diy the plaster around the front door, inner side, which elated me. and perhaps i was thinking, it's the small things which make the biggest difference. which is known to all, of course. so what am i stating the obvious? okay, it's the crumbs. pistacchio and lime, fyi, in a wandsworth airy tearoom. jane's corner view , francesca's hosting, kristin's theme.

    cleaning is a big thing for sure. and even you break it up into smaller tasks, it has a special knack of just growing into a bigger thing. :)

    It's always the little things Woolfy :)
    I am a slightly o.t.t. with cleaning. It's a sickness I inherited from my Mother.
    I don't clean the daughters rooms anymore though - I've managed to stop that caper. It was hard, but I continue to resist the temptation ;)

    Because cleaning is a constant I try to keep it small other wise I would be overwhelmed right!
    But every now and then I get a big burst of energy and purge so to speak ;)
    "the little things" are the crumbs we savor at the end of a fine slice of cake- to make it last :)

    It never ends! Big or small there's always more.
    Spring cleaning happened only a month ago and now I'm wondering if I really did it!
    Happy days to you, dear Nadine. xo

    Cleaning can be quite a big task, but those crumbs are screaming to me that one step at a time, we can indeed achieve everything.
