yuuagoLately we have been doing more work on cleaning the house. Yay!
After we finished with my closet, we started on my actual bedroom. Pulled out all of the furniture, vacuumed behind, washed the walls, everything! You won't BELIEVE how much dust there was behind everything. I swear this place hasn't been deep-cleaned in a decade.
And then we worked on the kitchen. That took three days, and we're still not done - still need to do the floor, but that'll have to wait for a day when we're not dogsitting.
Most of it was cleaning rather than decluttering, though we did get rid of a few things that were broken and whatnot. Also, we found a stash of the fancy hot cereal that mom had put away for me and completely forgot about, so now my breakfasts are positively decadent. ;)
And I never realized before that we have so many different sprinkles and cute cake decorating supplies! So now those are all in one place, and if I decide to make cupcakes, I'll know where to find them. :D
Not sure what we're tackling next. The spare room, maybe...? That one might have some challenges, because it used to be my brother's room, and he still has some stuff in there. We'll have to see about packing up his stuff so he can take it over to his place.
