My husband just came in and excitedly said, “I’ve changed the towels tonight.”
No response while I hovered over my computer.
“You know tomorrow is Clean Towel Wednesday, right?”
Oh, that’s right. We celebrate different holidays these days.
I had my own moment today, as well.
“I’m going to alphabetize the spice cabinet,” I announced after dinner.
And that’s what I did.
We have too much time on our hands.


How funny! We do have to look a little harder these days to have something to celebrate. It is amazing how much the little things give us such joy now.
Thank you, Rita. Yes, I am lucky to have the spouse I do too. He keeps it pretty fun around here.
Does he consider peanut butter a spice? I would never bother to alphabetize my spices because I know my husband wouldn’t be able to keep with the scheme. I do envy the cupboard though!
Good question. I am not sure he considers it a spice, as much as it has been a marriage-long habit of keeping it close and convenient. He is a peanut butter guy, so he probably didn’t want to switch his habit of going right there to get it.He did let me move it up a shelf though.
Really, who knows if I will even be able to keep up with this scheme! It’s part of my #geniushourathome project with my students! Thanks for stopping by.
Love it! I hear that some teachers (who teach at private schools here in the U.S.) are having classes all day online with their students – especially at the High School level. I don’t know if my back or my head could do that. We have always had “clean sheet Mondays,” and “clean towel Tuesday and Fridays.” đŸ˜‰
Joy, that is crazy, isn’t it? I think spending too much time on line is not good for teachers or students. One of my best lessons this week was spending an hour on the phone with a little guy who was getting lost in his assignments. We caught up in a big way in just one hour. I was his transcriber, and he told me to written assignments. I wrote down his words, and now he is ready to go to the next step with our genius hour project.
