Spring Cleaning
I should be spring cleaning. I have since Tuesday, but I'm already sick of it. On Tuesday I cleaned the family/living room. Wednesday, we got our ducts cleaned. Let me tell you, they were DISGUSTING! Joe said that they haven't been cleaned since the house was built...in 1963! REALLY?? There was so much junk. The guy cleaning them said he hadn't seen one this bad in along time. It didn't help that the people before us never cleaned (apparent while spring cleaning, you should have seen the blinds, ceiling fans, etc.) and had like 4 dogs and 2 cats. All that hair gets sucked into the duct work and when the furnace or air runs, all the hair and junk is getting blown out at you. No wonder we have all been having horrible allergies/asthma lately. If you have any of those, I suggest getting yours cleaned also. Hopefully it will help out in the health department. The guy also found 6, yes 6 golf balls down there. What in the world was someone doing putting golf balls down the vents? Anyway, back to the point. Since we had the ducts cleaned, we turned the heat on for last night and left over debris and junk blew all over my CLEAN rooms. Now it is time to redo them. Vacuuming and dusting anyway. I think that is why I'm getting so sick of it already, because I have to backtrack now and redo some stuff. It feels like I'm regressing instead of progressing. The house seems to be getting messier and messier. Maybe it is because I am neglecting the rest of the house while I'm doing room by room. Hopefully by Monday, it will be spick and span!! Well, my break is over. Time to go shampoo the carpets. Wish me luck!

That is how my life usually works... I always do things backward and end up re-doing them. Oh well, live and learn. That is funny that there were so many golf balls... random! Good luck! Love, Laura
OOOOOO, Yuck! I need to have our cleaned - who did it for you? I can't stand the thought of what might be in the duct work.
Your house is so adorable - It was so fun to come and see you last week . . . or was it the week before that? Yikes, I'm getting so forgetful! Love you
