A Clean Beaver Always Finds More Wood

   Most often people just put up Christmas decorations, but I have to clean.
   Not a little cleaning, put all framed photos away, bring out all the framed Christmas photos. Find and clean, all the Christmas dishes, linens, polish furniture, baseboards, the list is long. I also have to complete the job in one day, and collapse, singing Oh Come All Ye Faithful ! ( Bill reminds me, that I am like my mom and dad!) ( which I think is a complement, because I only gathered all their good genes!) My family are Clean Beavers!!!
  I bet you didn't know where I was going with this title.
 While doing my winter cleaning (yes, I have a housekeeper, but.....only I can really clean)(  my mother!!!yikes!!) I pulled out a drawer with crap written all over it. The drawer was Emma's in the kitchen, I transferred my control, and let her go to it. Throw out, purge, make room in the manger!!! I will tie it all up in ribbons and Baby Jesus to get things done. After a spell, she said, " Some of this is your stuff!" So I held out my hands, and this jewel of a piece of advertisement dropped in my lap!!!
 A Clean Beaver Always Finds More Wood, I love that sentence, but what is the marketing tool? I scan down, and its Playtex clean wipes! Called fresh and sexy! What in the world crazy is this? I come from a clean beaver family, but I was not thinking of finding more wood!!! I was thinking that with all the swimming, beavers are clean animals, so I tore this out, to use in the future! I never read the fine print, not even sure if I ever called my private parts!! a beaver!! I howled with laughter and I said out loud, " There is a blog in this!" and "Emma, don't throw anything away, there could be diamonds in that trash pile!" she kept shredding!
 I have folders of good material, and you know, MY notes!! but when one from long ago, jumps out at you, and you can tie it to Christmas, those are few and far between!
  This clean beaver, has finished with the Christmas decorations, with my cards left to do.
  There are still Thanksgiving leftovers to pick at, and football games to view.
  The weather is crisp and sunny, beautiful Saturday noonish.
  Hope I made you smile, and encouraged you to clean!
