cleaning whew 12 March, 2006 at 8:57 pm

so, K’s in camp for hte weekend (when we couldn’t get his shot until thursday, he was gonna be bouncing off the walls and driving me bat shit bonkers, so we scheduled the weekend; then didn’t unschedule it)

we decided to take the opportunity to clean some without him underfoot. saturday i spent a lot of time shredding. And by that i mean i filled the basket on the shredder (and it’s probably a 5ga basket) twice. filled up a whole big black trash bag with shredded crap and the envelopes it came in! jeeeees

then we went out to get a carpet for K’s room (there’s been none since december when we tossed the old one with the sofa and toilets) i hadn’t been able to find anything for less than 60-80. we go to home depot, in the middle of an aisle (where you couldn’t see what comes next), she goes “oh!” and scurries down the aisle and around a corner, up another aisle, and ends up in front of the display of 20$ shitcarpets. no idea. so we bought one. well, two, since they were cheap anyway, figure I can just put the other in the unfinished room until we replace K’s again in a year or so most likely (was about a year this time i think)

picked up a new comforter and we saw some “dvd/cd racks” half price (20->10). grabbed a pair. not b/c i have any intention of sticking dvds or cds on it, but b/c it turns out things like that make great display centers for all the pewter dragons and ceramic fairies an’ shit we have collected :o

spent this morning shredding again (another basket full) and then the rest of the day cleaning up the living room. throwing shit out, organizing crap. 2 large bags of junk, two boxes of more books. whole lotta empty boxes in the hallway now. trash night tuesday is gonna take me forfuckingever i swear!

spent the downtime between bouts of cleaning the house cleaning my mailboxes. I threw out some 2000 saved messages. and i never even got to my two primary boxes :o probably keep about half of the primaries, but it’s still another thousand, give or take.

it’s not just my house i don’t clean. it’s not even my house and my office. i don’t even clean out my mailbox !!!
