Crisis Cleaning, Day 1

Well, after a semester of work and school, the house is indeed showing the effects. Yesterday I did 2+ rounds of "Crisis Cleaning". Succeeded in getting the bathroom back to a "Swish and Swipe" state and keeping the kitchen under control in spite of home cooking all meals there. We also took time out to go visit DH's parents up the hill and after dinner, I took the girls to the local used book store and got several books off my reading list. Not too bad for the second day of Winter Break.

We also finally lit all of the hanukiyot for the last day of Hanukkah. Yeah, we were a couple of days late, but on the official last day, DH had an evening appointment, and then on Saturday evening, I was strangely exhausted and crashed at 4:30. So, tonight we had the mass lighting. Nine hanukiyot arranged around the table - very beautiful.
