Cleaning day!
Nov. 26th, 2011 12:04 pmSo. House needs to be cleaned up before Brother gets here next week to stay for Mom's services. House is a total disaster zone (though I'm sure living here several years lowers his standards for how clean I need to get the house). A couple of friends should be arrive any minute now to help me clean up the house. As a reward, I offered to host this week's game with the newly-cleaned house.
...I'm already exhausted and all I've done so far was to drive over to sort pictures with Dad, drive back, wash dishes, re-wash the towels I put in the washer last night, fluff and fold the clothes that were in dryer...
I hate housework. So much time & energy...
ETA: So. Lots of loads have gone through the washer & dryer. Dining table mostly cleared off (amazingly so, considering how it was piled up earlier), lots of dishes done and put away. Living room vacuumed thoroughly and somewhat cleared. New sheets put on the two beds, washing blankets to put on them. And floor of smaller bedroom much cleared. (Still has some more to go so I can vacuum in there, and all the linolium floors need sweeping/vacuuming and mopping.)
And I am quite surprised. I expected Cleo to hide from the Strange People. I expected Jack to be out and demanding attention. Instead he was hiding. Silly boy.
