Nieces are Nice

Sometimes having anul retentive relatives is actually nice. Today my 20 year old niece came for visit. While she was here she helped me finish doing to dishes, cleaned the kitchen counters, sorted my massive DVD collection to make sure the right DVDs were in the right boxes and even helped me go through my closet and pick clothes for my parents' garage sale next weekend.

Now, since I am at heart a messy person, this kind of help is invaluable. Bless you, Sarah! May your shadow never grow bulkier!

And yes, I stole that last line from Dorothy Sayers. Don't you just love Peter Whimsey?
