a crazy urge to purge stuff has seized me today, and i spent a very enjoyable 5 hours going through dust, dryer sheets, old nuts, bolts, construction left overs, papers, more papers, other papers, cds, packaging, plastic bags, dry wall pieces, nails, other bolts, light switches, outlet plates (x6), and clothes and did:
2 closets cleaned out
1 laundry room cleaned out
1 laundry room organized with new nails and less stuff
7 loads of laundry done (not kidding. maybe 8 if you count last night’s start.)
6 things hooked/hung to ease (i still have 1 gruntdal pole left to hang – not sure where is best to have more hookage area)
2.5 massive bags of recycling/trash tossed
1 box of misc stuff to parents
2 living room corners cleaned out
3 piles of things in bedroom cleaned out
1 olya desk cleaned out and re-set up with computer (yay!)
and about half a pinot noir consumed after that to aid in relaxation.
the best thing is? on wednesday my cleaning lady is coming, and she will tidy up the dust/dirt that my clean up revealed. she’ll also probably leave encouraging comments on the state of the closets, which always helps.
