On Saturday morning I got out at 7AM and cleaned out the trash shed and loaded the truck. I had to go to the dump once my helper left at noon.
Then I went in and started moving stuff out of the office. My helper had arrived and we started by cleaning off the walls.
Soon the whole kitchen counter was full of the smaller plants.
The island was full of the things needing washed. It overflowed onto the small counter by the fridge.
The dining room table was buried under things needing dusted and polished and pictures.
And the huge plants ended up outside and got hosed off there.
We got the whole ceiling wiped down, and the walls vacuumed and swiffered. Then we started on the woodwork and got that all done. Next we started on the furniture and the 8’ table top. That carried us to noon.
She left and I got my son and we headed to the dump. He’d been out weedwacking the front pasture and went back to it when we got back. I did a couple more things and then I had to get off my feet. I was done in.
On Sunday I will start washing plants and when that is done, start cleaning things and putting the office back together. It will take a couple more days at least. My helper is coming on Wednesday and Thursday to try to finish the last of this cleaning.
Sunday is going to be a rough day, as it’s the anniversary of when my husband went into the hospital. But I have a lot to do, so maybe that will be enough to get me through it.
