I'm back to the land of the living ...Hey girl!! I'm back to the land of the living and I'm right there with you! I can be a total slob and even though I ripped up the carpet in the house about 9 years ago, now the hardwood floors need to be redone. I live with animals, I swear!! Both literally and figuratively. <br /><br />Look, I try to use the 15 minute rule by FlyLady. Work 15 minutes then do something fun for 15 minutes and back and forth. It sure helps me at times. <br /><br />We can also be buddies and try to challenge each other. I know I need it. Don't stress over everything, just take your time and enjoy. That's what I'm going to try to do too. Everything doesn't have to be perfect.<br /><br />Thanks for your support over at my blog all those weeks when I had been so down. You brightened my day many times though you may not know it. Sorry I didn't respond sooner. I was in a pretty dark place and most times it was all I could do to get through the day. <br /><br />You are a true friend!Janice and Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11966955933322994438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289146193190795063.post-83994317017342949142009-12-03T10:18:57.171-06:002009-12-03T10:18:57.171-06:00Jennifer:

The Trader Joes ones are .99, but sell out. Grr.
