Spring Cleaning

So, working 12 hour days, being on call every 4th day, and overall hating my life for the last 3 months did not exactly lend itself to coming home from work to clean my house. Plus, with The Cutest Boy in the World out of town, I didn't have the motivation or need to prepared to entertain. So, the Studio 54 has been slowly gathering a layer of dust, Louis hair, and empty water cups.

But now life is returning to its semi-normal state. So, today, was Spring Cleaning day. The Cutest Boy in the World helped hang pictures, do heavy lifting, and even the occasional sweeping. I spent the day trying to figure out where to put all the random stuff that piles up in 3 months, cleaning up old Lanie tail blood, rotating loads of laundry, and doing a whole lot of dusting.

Yet, somehow, hours later, the house still seems to be in disarray. Why is it that things just seem to get worse long before it ever gets better? And where does all this dust come from? And how much does it cost to hire a maid???
