Why we need a maid

Something tells me Spring is almost here. Maybe it is the flowers, our extremely overgrown grass out front, or that all the blogs I read are talking about Spring cleaning and making lemonade. Whatever it is, I need to get in the spirit. At least the cleaning spirit.

Here is my Spring cleaning list:

  • Finish the laundry (confession: I have been trying to work on this one since before we moved)
  • Clean bedding
  • Sweep all the horrible dust bunnies
  • Vacuum the evil rug from Ikea that creates all the dust bunnies
  • Mop
  • Dust
  • Clean the bathrooms
  • Buy the Lord's Prayer Cross from the commercial
  • Just kidding
  • Clean out the fireplace
  • Finish unpacking from the months ago move
  • Redecorate everything
  • Clean the kitties room (yes the kitties have a room of their own. We figure we owe it to them since we have two evil dogs)
  • Organize laundry room
  • Organize my closet
  • Clean crafting room
Ugh, I am so not looking forward to doing any of these things. Next week will be cleaning week though, Spring cleaning week. I will listen to Nina Simone and tie up my hair in a scarf like Lucille Ball and become a cleaning machine.

oouuu...sounds like me. I am cleaning out junk drawers(like, one in every room) and trying to organize it all so we don't have extreme multiples of way too many items (pens, pencils, scissors, tacks, letter openers, magnifying glasses). Re: magnifying glasses, I don't think we have ever bought any, but somehow accumulate them. We have at least 6 that are glass, then there are the plastic book mark kind & so on.
All of that to say I am a bit overwhelmed too, and totally understand what you are saying!!
