2 miles right after dinner.... note to self, don't run right after having dinner. LOL

Yesterday I spent a huge chunk of the day cleaning the "forgotten" room in our house.  It's the room that somehow gets all the "stuff" dumped into it.  I took before and after pictures so that if my hubby didn't notice that I had cleaned it, I could prove it. :o)  Here you go.  (and yes, that disgusting room has been like that for a long time...  you can jugde me).

And after...

I think that should count as some physical activity.  Oh, and my husband did notice all on his own. :o)

Very nice! I have a room like that in my house--I don't even go in there! You have inspired me so perhaps this weekend I will find the motivation to clean it...

Getting it ready for this weekend, eh?

From Kelli on Tue, Feb 03, 2009 at 15:59:08

Yes, never run after dinner. Or, for me, within 4 hours of eating anything!!

Okay, now you are a cleaning fool!!! I could not have accomplished that in one day. I have a storage room, and I keep saying I will clean it, but I don't want to! I hate work. I like sitting on the computer eating popcorn better. But you have inspired me (not that I will do it, but you have still inspired me!)

How is the job hunting going?

April - Thanks... I hated going into that room before yesterday. Infact, my allergies were always SCREAMING if I went in there. It's much better now.

Burt - I'm hosting you all in my back yard... you'll never see that room. Okay... maybe I'll let everyone into my house, if you all fit.

Kelli - I figured if I cleaned my house good enough, I might be able to find a job hiding somewhere under all the junk. LOL

Good Heavens, Camille! You are a miracle worker! Great job, and if you ever get your entire house completely spotless, feel free to come use your super power at my house!

From Camille on Wed, Feb 04, 2009 at 09:33:01

LOL Lybi... my house will NEVER be spotless!

Camille, this is Vickie. Maybe you should rent your self out as a professional organizer or some thing. I know I'd be willing to pay you for your "talent". Yor house looks amazing!!!

From Camille on Wed, Feb 04, 2009 at 10:31:56

Vickie - you make me smile :o) Thank you. If it truely were a talent, my room would never have looked like that in the first place. :o)
