It’s Baaaack!
I am always amazed at how the turn of the season can wreak so much havoc on our daily lives. Well, the part where we do some decluttering, cleaning up, general projects and other stuff that has been on our To Do List forever.
In my neck of the woods, weather has a huge impact on what can be done when, and if Mother Nature isn’t cooperating that To Do List goes back in the drawer it came from.
Spring cleaning is always an interesting collection of tasks. Is it too warm to run the self-cleaning oven? Can we shampoo the carpets? Who’s up for taking the curtains and drapes down for laundering? Will the vacuum cleaner survive or should we get a new one now?
There was a time (way back in the dark ages) when Spring Cleaning was done in all its glory. The house was basically stripped down to the baseboards and tasks were done in an order that might not seem to make sense, but by the time everything was done (and rather quickly, too) it looked brand spanking New.
I shudder to contemplate what that would require these days.
In the meantime, I’m pulling out that To Do List and seeing what I can accomplish before it gets too warm, too cold or too wet. Too dry doesn’t seem to be an issue.
Wish me luck.
