It’s the second 20 chore Tuesday at Joyful Abode! Link up with your list, and make sure to encourage some other 20-chore-Tuesday-ers by leaving them a comment.
Here’s my list for the day:

- clean sliding glass door really well
- dust living room
- dust dining room
- make LLLove shirts for order
- straighten Anneliese’s toys

Due to some priority shifts, I’ll be happy if I get 10 things from the list finished tomorrow. I’ll write more about what’s going on later, but for now… just know my bar has been lowered a LOT. Sometimes that happens.
Link up your list if you have a blog. If not, go ahead and post your list in the comments to participate! Let’s DO ALL THE THINGS. Or, you know, 20 of them.



Hi! I'm Emily. I'm a Navy wife and stay at home mom of two beautiful children. I cook simple, delicious, grain-free recipes, do crafts, decorate my home on a budget, and keep a happy household. I tandem breastfeed, babywear, cloth diaper, practice elimination communication, homebirth, and co-sleep, but I'm not a hippie.
