The Second Cup of Coffee

If you have a queasy stomach, you might not want to read on... Just a friendly warning.



This is my kitchen~

This is what it looks like when I have a cold:







I know, pretty gross!



I feel even worse when my kitchen is a mess.



So, I had a SECOND cup of coffee to motivate me.



I feel so much better!


Have a second cup of coffee today and maybe you will have a CLEAN kitchen too...but I can't come over to help-I am going back to bed...

I was wondering where the mess was on the first set of photos - but the second set really looks wonderful! Bet that makes you feel a lot better...

I am sorry you have been feeling yucky... but I am glad you are feeling better now..

What is it about a clean kitchen that makes us feel so accomplished?

Your kitchen is lovely by the way..

Clean kitchens make a world of difference! If only I had someone to keep it clean for me...

I love your before and after pictures. I really need to do some tidying up in my kitchen. I really do not have an excuse for it looking a mess because I don't have a cold!
I hope you soon get rid of that cold and start feeling much better.

Ha! we sound like the same person!

I got up this morning and picked up the house (sniffling, sneezing and blowing my nose all the way) and then headed to work.

I'm on the mend and hate to not work.

Have a great day and feel better soon!

I am sorry that you are sick. I sure hope that you are feeling better real soon.
Your house is beautiful! Before and after!
Amazing what that "second" cup of coffee can accomplish huh?
Get plenty of rest and looking forward to checking back with you.

I have had a cold for 3 days now. I will try TWO cups of coffee tomorrow instead of one. Wish me luck!

Em said...

I don't know if it is a cold or allergies but I feel like my head is going to explode! And BTW - not even 10 cups of coffee could make my kitchen that cute!

Mother Hood said...

Thanks for posting pictures of your messy kitchen! Makes me feel normal! We can't always be supermoms. We're mere humans, although the world fails to see that sometimes!
