I know I am delinquent on posting when someone says "Hey! What's the deal?!" I'll tell you the deal. It all starts with one little task. . .
Since we have been in house-selling mode for months now, I am constantly cleaning, fixing and improving where I can. I planted some new flowers a little while back and put these two nice planters on either side of the front door. The clay/ dirt in the pots ran all over the place and stained the sidewalk red. Ick! To remedy the stain (that we just power washed, by the way) I borrowed our neighbors power washer again. So I do that in no time. Then, I tackled the corner of the house that was looking a little green. That was easy. Well, since we have the power washer and it's all set up, why not do the back patio? Okey dokey. Looks great. But man, while I was out there I noticed the gutters need some attention. We clean out the gutters and run some water through them. While I'm up there on the ladder I notice there's a lot of dirt on the side of the house. I bet a quick spray will help. Ah yes, much better. Ooops. The windows sure are spotty now. Guess I'll wash the outside. Oh, the dirt is on the inside. Oh, the bottom half needs cleaning too. Shoot, look at that pollen collecting in the sill. Crap, I've made a mess all over the floor. Shit - this place is a MESS!
What started with a simple task ended up as a 90 minute cleaning spree. It's almost 3pm. Maybe I should shower today . . .
So if you're wondering what the heck I'm doing, now you know! Anyone want a nice clean house?!
