Homestead Haven Beginnings

Chores Chores Chores

"Wash on Monday,

Iron on Tuesday,

Mend on Wednesday,

Churn on Thursday,

Clean on Friday,

Bake on Saturday,

Rest on Sunday."

This always humbles me, because, Ma in "The Little House on the Prarie" had a million other things to do I'm sure.  Certianly many more than myself, but I could list at the drop of a dime the billion things I do.  Sometimes I think I carry that list in my pocket, waiting and just daring someone (DH usually) to ask me what I do everyday!  Ma did not have bells and whistles on to announce when she was doing her chores, didn't complain and always had a good attitude.  She didn't tally what she did nor did she compare, this was her life...a simple life, and she just did.

I always think of that Little List on the Prairie when I try to get organized...sigh...well, you have to think that if you had no car, no phone, no computer and no close neighbors, you'd probably get a lot more done, too right?? That's what I keep telling myself anyway :)
