Sounds nice. I read "Clockers" before bed last night and gave myself coke-dealer nightmares...It really is great, but I should do something else before sleeping.

Mopping is so frustrating for me. I mop and I rinse, and I pull up so much dirt, and yet the floor is still disgusting.

the wood floor or tile?

I generally prefer sweeping and then swiffering hardfloors. If the kitchen needs more after that, then I mop, or hand scrub. but I never rinse. What product do you use?

Tiles. Hand scrubbed. (not a big deal actually, since my bathroom and kitchen are so teeny). Spic and Span.

I filed my federal taxes -- I'll print stuff on Monday.

I'm going to owe on State Taxes so, I will just do those via mail and later. . .

Okay, I assume I'm going to owe the state money because I always do.

Tom, when you said mop, you meant hand scrubbed? and after hand scrubbing they still look yuck?

It's often impossible to get older tiles looking really clean. Or at least, that's my excuse....

My first suggestion is to try hand scrubbing with a brush or other good bristle scrubber with a powCder cleaner with some bleach in it, like ajax. Concentrated in one area and see if that is making a difference.

realized colored tiles won't bleach.

wait a minute, are you at school? cause you should be!

Also? guess who was hungry?

I'll give you a hint, starts with m, ends with e.

I am at school, taking care of bidness. BUT! I just came across a program evaluation done by an organization called, I shit you not, OMG. So I had to share.
