31 Days to Clean Having a Martha House the Mary way
Day 4 – A Place to Put Your Feet Up
Mary Challenge: Invite over a friend and allow them to “put their feet up.” Don’t worry about making everything just right, instead, enjoy their company.
I haven’t had the privilege of doing this yet but hope to get to have someone or a group of people over SOON! This is already a custom in our home so I feel I’ll fair well, even with a drop in!
Martha Challenge: Kitchen – Clean your oven and microwave.
I LOVE that my oven has a “self-clean” option and I use it at least every other month. ALTHOUGH, I didn’t know/think about the funk, that falls between the cracks then you clean out the oven, going into the warmer drawer. Thank goodness we don’t store our pans in there because that was embracingly nasty: full of crumbs, a couple of dead bugs, and cobwebs!
**UPDATE**
*Got to host our Sunday school class tonight (which we do often) but this was even more spur-of-the-moment than normal. The 1st family walked in while I was still cleaning up that “gunk” that collects under the booster seat. Felt great and comfy to sit and chat with friends while the men chatted in one room and the babes ran round in the toy splattered house! We had to call it quits ~30 min past all our kiddos bed times. LOVE IT! (5-15-11)*
