Realization!

I have a lot that I want to get done today, mostly cleaning up around the house after a crazy holiday weekend. One thing that absolutely had to be done was cleaning the windows in the family room. Now - let's talk about these windows....6 windows each spanning 4 feet wide and 7 feet high. Yes, my family room is basically a greenhouse! The view from these windows is amazing. The pool that sparkles in the sunshine, olive, orange, lemon, lime and grapefruit trees each bearing colorful fruit, beautiful flowers and foliage everywhere - truly stunning. However; it has been a little hard to appreciate the view because the windows have been SO dirty. I'm not talking a little dirty, they were disgusting! The outside of the windows have an excuse.... they have gone through monsoon season, the inside - who knows??? They were just damn dirty! So I spent about an hour cleaning the inside and just in case you want to know - dish soap and water to wash them down and a clean cloth to dry works so much better than any cleaning product such as Windex. Then I make the trek outside, grabbed the hose and went to work. I hosed down each window and every time that I sprayed the water the most beautiful rainbow would appear. The glory of this life is that you can find beauty in even the dirtiest jobs!
