Did I say holiday? I'm taking a break from non-holiday while the kids eat lunch. I asked myself what I want to be doing this weekend. Looking around, I decided what I want to be doing is cleaning! I have a major dust aversion and the bunnies are about to take the house away. I always feel better when it's clean, so I thought I'd put my energies to getting that accomplished so I can sit back and enjoy the clean. We have an area carpet over carpet in our living room. It just absorbs dust and stuff. I put it there while I was waiting to decide on new carpet or wood floors. Then March came and the bomb dropped. I've done nothing towards getting new floor covering. The carpet is reasonably new, but too deep a pile to be practical for the traffic it gets. Anyway.. H calls these journeys to clean and organized "entering the world of Sheila". I tend to get a spur of the moment urge to take on a project and then want everyone to join in. Good thing he's a neat freak! So, I pulled up the area carpet, and was going to vacuum the carpet, then thought, "what the heck" it really needs steam cleaned. Was cleaning out the magazine rack and turned around to S2's handywork. Black permanent marker on the carpet!!! AAAAACK!!!! So, now I'm locked in on the cleaning adventure here. No turning back now.
Not sure why I always have to be "doing" something.. improving something. It's a curse. I shoulda stuck with laying in bed and watching movies!
