I've been cleaning very thoroughly for quite a few months but today I think I really broke through a large barrier.
Yesterday: Wired Shel's ethernet. Big job involving snaking two wires, adding a switch, a box, going to and from the attic, removing ceiling tiles, getting hit with plaster that had separated from the ceiling and cleaning up the gigantic mess exploring the drop ceiling made.
Today:
- five loads of laundry, six of drying.
- Folded towels and sheets, placed in linen closet
- Folded all clothes - about 300 pieces. Yes, I counted. Hung delicates. Sorted where possible.
- Brought my clothes upstairs and put it away.
- Cleaned every inch of the basement of webs including under the stairs.
- Laundered two bags of unknown clothes that had been in the basement for months ("don't touch those, I'll take care of it")
- Bagged trash and took it down into the garage
- Bagged recyclables, paper and plastic separate
- Walked dog
- Made lunch, dinner, cleaned up after Shel's cooking
- Unloaded and loaded DW, unloaded when dry, put all dishes away, reloaded with new dirty dishes.
- Cleaned two pans by hand with scouring powder that didn't come clean in the washer.
- Put away pots, organized pot cabinet
- Set up auto-coffee for the next day
- Vacuumed the LR and steps, shampooed a portion of the LR, washed the runner
- Picked up something like six or seven piles of dog poo
- Talked on phone
- Tried to get wife to reply as to return time - never did but responded with bizarre texts
- Talked to kid
- Drank a lot of coffee
- Took a two hour nap
- Checked my bank account - dunned for a charge though I made a deposit to cover it IN TIME!
- Changed the cat litter
- Scooped the box after the cat's use
- Washed the tiles in the kitchen and DR
- Vacuumed behind the dryer and washer, all the vents and grilles and utility access gates
- Powdered the floor and vacuumed that.
- Put my clothes away

Much Work
Painted all day. Downstairs bath, all the wooden doors, requiring knob removal. Adjusted the attic door height. Tightened the pantry hinges, Laundered the couch blankets and prepped to change the litter. Painted the south wall on the steps requiring taking off then reattaching the small handrails. Washed the baseboards near the front and on the landing. Vacuumed. Sanded the top banister and made ready for poly. Cleaned up tools and brushes, rollers.Washed 2 switchplates and reattached them. Picked up D at midnight and made coffee for the morning. Also picked up the kid earlier. And went to Jeffereson BOA to make a deposit of $20 to cover a potential $38 charge from Lukoil. Took a 90 minute nap before picking D up. Changed the toilet flapper. It still leaks. Fed the animals three times. Got the mail from the box and gave Dawn her one letter. Vacuumed the attic stairs. They look more slanted to me. Many dead bees. Talked to S but worked at the same time. Washed the shower downstairs and was the floor there and in the vestibule. Cleaned and rehung the stairs clock. Picked up after the dog.
