I can not believe it. I cleaned non-stop for 1 1/2 hours today. :woohoo: Only cleaned 3 rooms but at least the house seems much cleaner. Can have company downstairs without worry at the moment. :bow: But then company only comes when the dust balls are up to the ceiling. :lmao: I have even been feeling good enough on some days to get exercising in. Back to lifting weights. Working slowly up to doing the big lifts. This is just amazing. :cat:

Wow! Are you available tomorrow for a good house cleaning here? :)

The last time I did a really good cleaning I was 8 months pregnant and nothing was clean enough. I couldn't sit still, I had to organize kitchen & bathroom cabinets, closets, clean this, that, and everything. I wish I had that kind of energy still, ugh.

Waterflow -- YOU MUST BE KIDDING!!! ONLY THREE ROOMS!!!! Is that the best you can do in a day???

:smile tee JUST KIDDING of course! Wow you go girl! Congratulations -- it feels so good to get a room done -- but three -- that has to be close to ecstacy! :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

I am next in line for the good housekeeping visit!

... Only cleaned 3 rooms but at least the house seems much cleaner ...

Ok, I got out a calender appointment book so I can start making cleaning appointments for everyone. :biglaugh: I haven't had all 3 rooms downstairs cleaning at the same time in I don't know how long.
I have a rather large house so still had 2 more rooms down stairs. Then there is the upstairs. Oh, don't mention upstairs. That has been sitting longer with dust balls growing bigger and bigger with each passing month. I may need a football uniform when I start to tackle upstairs.
Jess214--I've lost my organizational skills a long time ago. Any tips on how to get it back other then throwing everything into the nearest closet? :lmao:

Oh definitely. When the closet gets too full, you sweep it all under the bed!! And if you've got a waterbed, go for the garage!!!

Another possibility is bagging the dustballs and hanging them from the cobwebs! Right now my house is a disaster. And I won't be able to touch it tomorrow because I have things I have to do that will take all day.

Ohh I like that suggestion about hanging them from the cobwebs. In my case it would be spiderwebs, though, and I think the spiders would boycott.

Congratulations!!!! It never fails for me, company always comes when the house is dirty. Nobody ever comes when it's clean! I just tell them "Sorry about the mess, but we live here!" LOL! My husband keeps wanting to buy a bigger house & I say no! It's just more for me to clean & I can't keep up with what I have now!

Hey, if it wasn't for my youngest son (he's 18) my house wouldn't get clean at all!! He vacumns,dust, mops floors, etc -- even cleans the toilet!! He does it all except the master bed/bathrooms.
I will rent him out if any one wants him!
