I tried...I really did, But, as you noticed I've been absent again for the last week. I do have things in 'draft' mode that I plan [ 🤞 ] to get posted. I will say though other than getting blogging done I have managed to complete a couple of to-do list items, work my races, and work my various committee responsibilities....
With that... let's link up with Sandra for this second week of June and second Happy Homemaker Monday of June.

[another reason for being MIA]
Carpet has been in 2 downstairs rooms for longer than I've been here,
They were getting beyond Gross & Nasty! I told the Mr we needed to either get a carpet cleaner -or- remove the carpet...I'm Not cleaning carpets anymore so removal it was! Oh..My..Lord! It was a job! I really expected the floors to be in bad shape, so was surprised to see all the good areas.
Granted there's places that requires TLC, that will happen at a much later time...
