My daughter and I were cooking supper tonight and I told her that I needed the house tidied by us by the end of the night so I would have an easier time cleaning tomorrow. I mentioned that I really haven't cleaned the house in a while. She said, what like, 2 weeks? No....more like a few months. And her comeback, "huh, I thought it was a bit messy". She hadn't even really noticed that the house wasn't clean! That's how not bad it is!
Like I said before, I do tidy and spot clean, but I am doing the full on clean tomorrow. With the exception of my daughter's room. We broke down and finally bought her a bedroom set and it will be here in a few weeks. She's been using my stuff that my husband and I bought before we were even married! And she had her own bed that we bought about 8 years ago, the one that I broke as I put it together, and broke further every time we moved it! It works, it's just missing "pretty" pieces. So I have to clear out her room before I can clean it and paint it. We get to get rid of a ton of stuff that she doesn't use - and I am being very brutal with what I get rid of. I can't stand the crap that we don't need or use.
I also have a bunch of stuff around the house that I can't wait to get rid of. I have a full bag in the den that is leaving soon, and I plan to have a lot more after that! My husband seems to think that he wants to move again. I don't really, but it can't hurt to get rid of shit that I wouldn't want to move anyway!
I have to go now - my husband has been watching the 9/11 stuff all week and he wants to chat about it. Happy Birthday to my Dad and cousin Brian - at least there are 2 good things that happened on September 11th!
