With lots of stuff going on at work, I got home Friday and was drained. All I really wanted to do was sleep, but I’ve been doing that a lot of late, so I struggled through a bicep workout and managed to stay up. I had a big day planned on Saturday, which was anything but exciting.

Saturday, after my morning run and shower, I went shopping for cleaning supplies. It was time to do the Spring cleaning. I have company coming this weekend and I really wanted to get the house in shape. So after a less than fun time at Wal-Mart (oh, sometime I absolutely hate that place), I dragged myself home and started cleaning the carpets. I do this once or twice a year. The process is labor intensive, as I move all the stuff from one side of the room to the other, vacuum and then shampoo the carpet, put a fan out to help dry it, and then go to another room and repeat it. Eventually I have three rooms with all the crap pushed to one side, then I go back to the first room which is dry and then repeat it by pushing everything to the OTHER side of the room and starting again.

I lead the exciting life, right?

So several hours later, I’m a sweaty mess with clean carpets throughout the house. I will admit that does do something to those carpets, because when I put my bare feet on them, they feel so much softer. Of course, this could be all in my head after all that work, but I’ll take it.

I’d bailed on a Derby party to do this, but a friend called and wanted to grab a quick dinner and I was more than happy to go.

After waking up incredibly sore the next day, I spent several hours trying to find a DVD rack as all the moving of furniture trashed on the one I had. Well, with the movies streaming these days, DVD racks are becoming hard to find. I finally bought a bookshelf and just used it.

Again, exciting life… yay… Happy Monday.

I should get going on our hardwood floors. They could really use a cleaning! Well done!

There are days I wish I had hardwood floors. I've been very tempted lately to have them put in the downstairs area at least.

When you recover, come clean our carpets!

LOL! It might be a while before I recover. I'm feeling very old and sore this morning...

But now you have clean, clean carpets.

I'm guessing its cheaper for you to do them yourself than to hire a company to do them, eh?

I've never priced it out, or even considered it. I bought a carpet cleaner years ago and just use it when I need to.
