Clutter abounds

I was looking at the blog  Adventures in Renovating a Brooklyn Limestone and posted a comment about her table centerpiece.  And it got me thinking about the clutter around my house.  I love my "stuff", but it may be time to clean slate things up a bit.  I took a picture of #4 son who was in from Texas with his lovely girlfriend, and all I can concentrate on is the clutter above the cupboard.  Tomorrow it is gone!!!

GRANDS ARE THE BEST

Four year old Audrey "you never hit"   Me, "no, Grandma's don't hit, but we do say don't do that"
Audrey "grandpa is a hitter"    Me, "no, way!"   Audrey "he keeps spankings in his pocket"   Me "in his pocket?" Has he taken spankings out of his pocket for you?"   Audrey "no, only for the boys,  I think it's just his hands"

It's summertime in Missouri. The weather hasn't been so bad, which leaves me to believe bad times are coming. I'm like the abused wife that if things are good, I'm waiting for the punch. But I'm not an abused wife, at all. I knew an abused wife when I was in my twenties. And I was so compassionate, that I think I may have actually said "what is wrong with you that you would put up with that?" Totally understanding, that's me. But still.... Anyway I finally got rid of a coworker that did not. work that is. And I like the replacement, he's great. And I'll get an extra worker in a few weeks and I'm betting right now he'll be a jerk. See, I'm always waiting for the bad. Could he be another good worker, not need his ego feed, cooperative, not a know it all? Probably not.
