Yesterday I started to spring clean the living/dining room, when I spring clean I really do a deep clean. Using a toothbrush to get into the corners of the windows and along the baseboards. This house was built in the 70's and not much has been updated in the windows and wood trim in these areas. What has been cleaned so far, is looking so much better. Today I am finishing the room. The carpet needs to be cleaned but at this point in time with the lockdown that is not going to happen so I have been using a spot cleaner to get at the little spots. Today, I washed the curtains and cleaned out the china cabinet, the drawers and cupboard below it. Hubby washed to dining room window this morning, so now we can see out of it, it had not been done for a couple of years as it is very high, he had to get on the extension ladder to be able to do that job. Just need to clean the light fixture over the dining table and polish the table and chairs then I can call that area done. Pacing myself today, so that is all that will be done. tomorrow the fireplace, the mantle and redo the flower arrangement on the hearth. Then on to the guest bedroom, it is not that bad as it was recently painted and of course during the past year ....no guests.
We had a beautiful sunny morning and it was still decent enough to eat our picnic lunch outside, however, while writing this at 3:45 p.m. it has clouded over, so we could be getting the rain showers that have been forecast.
Dinner tonight, pulled pork on a bun, a big salad, and apple turnovers for dessert.
