Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am trying to decide whether to set up my mattress on the floor or sleep on the sofa. The foundation is coming tomorrow. The sofa probably needs to be steam cleaned.

Serial: In a feet of super human strength, I just lugged the Leesa mattress up the stairs by myself. I am now ready for a nap, but frankly, the carpet needs to dry before I put the mattress out anyway!

I think this big push by the professionals has finally put me in a spot where I can pass, and everything else is cosmetic. But it is CLEAN!!!!

I keep finding new things that they cleaned that I didn't really ask them too, like my kitchen table and chairs and the pictures on my walls! The closet doors.

I still have to do two radiators, but I have developed a technique with. Dowel and a swiffer cloth. They were so fast. I am really pleased.

I am a little anxious because I think they filled the dumpster too full. But I think that just means I will be assessed an extra fee, not that they won't pick it up.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Congrats to Guy-of-Maria!

Woo, Sophia!

I have to share - I was walking back from the costume contest voting with one of my coworkers and she says to me "whoa re you again?" so I tell her Rosie the Riveter (in my head I'm Dorothy the Riveter because of the shoes but that's too complicated to get into) and she says "and which show is she from?"

At least she knew I was someone she should know, I guess

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

But it is CLEAN!!!!

Yay! So wonderful. You've done amazingly well.

But I think that just means I will be assessed an extra fee, not that they won't pick it up.

Yeah, they'll pick it up.

OMG! So proud of you!

Ann, that's a ferret.

Yay, Sophia! I vote for sleeping on the sofa.

Whoa, Sophia! So good to hear the good news!

I am pretty happy! I think I am going to ask Maria if I can pay her son to come Sunday and take out the cardboard from the mattress and a couple more bags of trash before the trash pickup Monday morning. I just decided to give up on cleaning the Papasan chair cushion and ordered another one, but that cushion has to be taken out. Oh the cat pee in the cat pee room that I shut up when Miss Bobo died. At least it was so messy, she didn't get the carpet!!!!
