I lied. I'm a big fat liar. I didn't clean my fridge yesterday because I'm lazy. It needed done, I didn't do it and then said it didn't need cleaned. Truthfully, it wasn't bad and didn't take me long. Nothing sticky or slimy so just a quick wipedown was necessary. But today I did it. Along with my Day Three challenge.

Today I also asked my family members what I could do to show them I love them by caring for our home. My husband told me that he'd like for "technology" to be a reward and not a priority. He says I spend too much time on the computer (guilty as charged), watching tv (I could watch less), and talking on the phone (uhhhh, not sure how I'll give that up). He would like for me to focus more on the necessary tasks and use Facebook (my guiltiest pleasure) as my reward for being diligent. Zander told me that I could show him I love him with just one word...."Clean." Sobering message from my preschooler. Adisson would like for me to set up a responsibilities and rewards chart for him. He'd really like to be earning money by helping out around the house. He proved that by doing several extra chores tonight without being asked. When I asked Jax what I could do he said "Dad".....I'll leave that alone. :)

I know my family wants me to be a better housekeeper and it's not that I *don't* want to be, I just lack the motivation to be one. I didn't have a housekeeping role model. I didn't learn how to do that. So now I'm trying to learn. But you know what they say about teaching an old dog new tricks. But Sarah Mae says if you're breathing there's still time to change.

And I sure am trying.
