Doesn't sound like much fun. :)

I had that feeling a couple of weeks ago, when we had visitors at the end of march and it was one of those rare occasions where I enjoyed cleaning.

I am already way past that feeling. And one week alone hasn't inspired me to clean up my clutter. Ouch...I should urgently move out of the sofa to do something about it.

Jen said...

Well, Chani, the cleaning isn't fun, but it's nice to have the breeze blowing through the house and seeing clean corners, etc.

I was ready for it, although I'm tired even now and still have a longer number of things to get through on the list. D and C are helping, too, though. We'll git 'er dun!

I did my cleaning last week. Now I get to enjoy the effects of it while outdoors.

Jen said...

Good for you for being DONE, Dru! We're about 1/3 of the way there... Back to work for me.

April said...

Tell me about it! Just spent most of the day cleaning!

anno said...

Just what I ought to be doing...

Oh, how I understand this. I'm taking a break right this very minute from cleaning Will's room. Such fun!

Jen said...

April, Anno, and Jane - Well, it's almost 7 and we're done with everything except washing floors in the big areas, which we'll do tomorrow. We're all grouchy, but the house is starting to smell clean again and we're all (literally) breathing easier!

Yuck. I hate Spring cleaning. Otherwise, Spring is awesome.

Jen said...

Well, Jane, me too! BUT... I have to admit that I'm so enjoying going into the newly-clean rooms, now that it's mostly done. ;-)

ew yucky. but I do appreciate the feeling that you can breathe again

Luisa Perkins said...

I also feel the need to do some deep decluttering before this baby comes...we'll see how far I get.

Jen said...

Flower child - you know, it's one of those necessary evils. I don't mind cleaning, it's more getting the guys on board that this is necessary, lol. I have two grouchy beings on my hands all day.

Luisa, ah, I remember those nesting feelings even though it was almost 15 years ago! As you said, though, it depends on energy, etc.

Can you come clean my place? I hate cleaning!

Kate said...

I know... cleaning is one of those things that i always think.... yuck but actually quite enjoy doing once i start. I know.... i'm a freak!
