I’ve lived in this house for about 2 1/2 years and I’ve never cleaned the office. I’ve wiped down the office and swept the floors if that counts as cleaning, but today this little, smelly, windowless room that used to be a pantry, stinking of litter boxes and household scum, is going to get a makeover. I’m moving the desk from one wall to the other, which means taking all the books out of my largest bookcase and moving it to another wall. All the furniture in this room is pressed sawdust assemble it yourself crap so I have to gamble on its ability to survive yet another move.
I realize it’s already 3pm and this is probably a stupid idea but I’m going for it. I have to get it done today because it means I have to disassemble the computer. I’ll go batty without my computer if I don’t die choking on hairballs and dustbunnies first.
Wish me luck.
UPDATE: As of 6pm I have broken two complete sets of computer speakers. Also, kitty litter really likes hardwood floors.
Are you sure we weren’t actually separated at birth? Because this is when ALL my major home-makeover projects begin.
Runner-up favorite time to get started: 8:00 p.m. Hey, if I work really super-hard for four straight hours, I could be done by midnight!
