Thankful Thursday: Kill Me Now

Source

Whoever said keeping a smallish house on a biggish block immaculate with four small people and two big ones is easy was lying. Actually I'm pretty sure no one has ever said that. Ever.

I have been slogging my guts out working pretty hard to get or house to a level of cleanliness and prettiness that I find acceptable. Admittedly I am a systems junkie and a bit of a neat freak so maybe I'm being a bit OTT about it all but I just know what I'd like to see in a house being presented to me. I asked people on my Facebook page as well and overwhelmingly for women it seems to be the kitchen, bathrooms and storage that clinches it. I'm the same and I love my kitchen... Truly it is the heart of our house and I want it looking its very best and brightest.

So now we enter that phase where you could get a call any day at any time with people wanting to check out your place. Really we want heaps and heaps of people to do that! But it's a stressful feeling too and I can't wait until we get an offer that makes us happy and this bit is done.

Anyway I'm feeling very thankful that I've been able to get or house up to my version of sales standard so quickly.

I'm thankful that overall the kids are coping okay with everything so far.

I'm thankful that the supertrucker's long weekend is coming up and we can get the outside looking shmicko.

I'm thankful that the property will be photographed and listed online next week because I just know someone is going to fall in love with it like we did.

It's Thursday. I'm exhausted but thankful.
