I was going to talk to you about mending.
More specifically, about sewing on errant buttons (an oft-requested topic), but when I took pictures of the process yesterday, it was dark and rainy and so none of the pictures are very clear or helpful.
And then I was going to write about honesty and frugality, but even though I got the post pretty much written this morning, I want to let it sit for at least 24 hours before I publish it just to make sure that I've said what I meant to say.
So, I'm just here to tell you that I don't really have a post for today.
I'll leave you with this picture of the pile that I swept up from my office floor.
Those are 12x12 tiles, so that pile is pretty impressively large and my office feels much cleaner now. 😉
I'll be back tomorrow with something more substantive, hopefully!

I am fascinated by just how pretty your pile of sweepings look. Nice picture !
I have lots of days when my posts just don't work out the way I want. Especially when it comes to the pictures. 🙂 Happy Tuesday.
Meh, it's still great to hear from you.
What are those sweepings from? I see ribbons, fabric?, paper.. odd assortment. Do you not sweep your floor?! 😉
It's from my office floor, so there are many random droppings from children's crafts. I'd say 90% of the pile is their fault.
I can't wait to hear that honesty/frugality post. 🙂
It's amazing how messy just a few bits can make a floor look. Contrawise, it's amazing how just a little sweeping makes a room look tidier.
I too can't wait to see this post when it is ready. But I have a floor related question. I'm new at tile (sort of I bought the house nearly a year ago) but nothing seems to work or reach into the grout. That is unless I get down on my hands and knees and hand wash the kitchen entry and both bathrooms. I have Multiple Sclerosis and all the Cinderella work is not always easy to do!! Sponge mops don't work, swiffer wet mops still don't get into the grout, what sort of mop do you use on your tile floors?
Hmm, you've inspired me to write a post on "clean-as-you-go". 😉
Unrelated: Hmm. What were the pop-ups that people were seeing before? I just had a Vizu questionnaire pop up on my screen, and had a different one pop up on my phone earlier. Are these the invasive ones? Or were those different?
One thing I love about your blog is your lack of pretention and that you don't try to seem perfect all the time! Thank you for being somebody the rest of us can relate to.
Will you be going back to the schedule you were on before once the fall arrives? I enjoyed your site before for the tips and especially the recipes! I've just mostly read random posts lately(which are fine...) but am more interested in the info you were writing and posting about prior to the summer. Thanks!
@Reese Be VERY careful. I got the virus that was going around from this blog and it destroyed our computer.....Kristen did her best to help solve the problem, but unfortunately it was a bad one. I know I wasn't the only one.
It is amazing how much better yours look than mine. Mine have animal hair and yuckies. lol
Oh I love a good sweep pile picture!! I almost took one today,too!
