Uggghhh

The thing about going back to work is now my house is freaking dirty again. I walked in today, and it smelled like a sock in here.

A very, very dirty sock.

Honestly, if I found a body underneath all our dirty laundry in the bedroom I would only be mildly surprised.

My plan for Saturday morning is to clean the every living crap out of this place.

I plan on starting on this cleaning spree on Thursday night by throwing away everything that is not nailed down. No, seriously. That is how I clean. I throw away EVERYTHING. Have I touched this in the last three months? No? INTO THE TRASH IT GOES. Then I scrub the crap out of what is nailed down, or what Eric has salvaged out of my trash bags.

"This is a picture of my grandmother!"

"Oh, sorry about that! Do you want me to Pine Sol it?"

"Nooooo!"

Then I am going to steam clean my carpets with some Gain.

No, trust me, laundry detergent works far better than carpet cleaner ever will. Plus it smells better.

Afterwards I am going down to the south side of Chicago to go with my mother to eat at the place she found to host my wedding shower. I am going to get my fill of baked mostacholli or linguine with clam sauce (*little fists of joy* I CANNOT DECIDE!) and then I am going to roll myself into my clean bed and sleep the rest of the weekend away. Yeah. Great plans, no?

I don't know about you, but I am ready for the weekend.

(Ok, side note, I will totally admit to the fact that I watch TV while writing blog posts, and can I just say - OMG KILL BILL IS ON! YESSSSS! BEST WEDNESDAY EVER! Excuse me while I get a can of Coke and watch Uma Thurman get shot in the head!)

Also - my great plan is to finalize painting/decorating in the next coming weekends, and then take pictures and post them on this blog. Yeah. I know. This is not a decorating blog. And I am not a decorator. So let's just say it will probably be a humorous experiment for those of you who have any taste whatsoever.

2 comments about my weirdness:

  1. hmmmm... gain instead of overpriced Bissell fluid?
    's just for the scent or does it actually clean?
    Inquiring minds NEED to know... Provided the power stays on, I have the stink of dog to get out of Casa Mak carpets.

  2. It does actually clean. I also add a capfull of bleach to my solution as well, but I have white carpets, so that's pretty much a need.
