Housekeeping

The house was getting dusty. Despite my attempt to sleep at a decent hour yesterday, I ended up going to bed at 4am. I lied in bed for the longest time counting sheeps (er, maybe not... more like day dreaming), but was unable to switch off. Ended up fiddling with my laptop in bed, upgrading Norton anti virus program, downloading music, and changing the layout of my blog to include a video slideshow at the bottom page. After all that, it was only fair that I woke up at 1pm. Most of the afternoon was spent wiping dust that has accumulated on the furniture over the last week. Clean surfaces make a huge difference. I also re-organized cabinets and our photo racks in the billiard & study rooms. Evening I spent in the garden watering our roses. From the garden, I cut off a dozen of red roses and they are now sitting beautifully in a vase right in front of me as I type. This is what I've been up to today, nothing too fancy. Just enjoying the simple things in life.
