Everyday chores do not inspire confidence until the job is done, chaos is gentled and order restored.
Taught how to sweep the floor, wash the dishes and make the beds, children rail against everyday chores caught in the joy of play.
Adults mayn’t grow to love
everyday chores piled up
but without Mary Poppins ~
let go or gentle the chaos.
“The cleaning is something I use as a reward if I get some work done.
I go into a very happy state of mind when I’m vacuuming.”
~ Joyce Carol Oates
