They should totally change the prayer book
You know, there is a blessing in the Episcopal church which says, "May the peace of God, which passes all understanding, keep your hearts and minds in the knowledge and love of God, and of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord; and may the blessings of God almighty, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, be with you now and remain with you forever. Amen!
I'd like to officially petition the church to change the line to "the peace of mind which comes with a clean house..."
Seriously folks - After weeks of squalor and near slum-like conditions, I finally got off my lazy ass and did some serious cleaning. It wasn't even of the spring variety. It was just normal, what should be once a week cleaning of the bathrooms, kitchen, and other living areas of my home.
And you know what, I just woke up this morning in a better mood. The bathroom didn't scare me first thing in the morning. I walked around in my bare feet and nothing stuck to me. What a beautiful feeling.
Now, this isn't to say that the project-like conditions won't be back - probably sooner rather then later. But it is nice, even if just for a fleeting moment or two, to live in relative cleanliness.
Until the Episcopal Hymnal includes "Bette Davis Eyes" -
