The Simple Sisters

18 January 2010

From the Rochelle files...

As I talked about in my last post, I spent a good chunk of my three day weekend cleaning the house.

Some things were highly overdue…

Like cleaning the down stairs cat box. It had gotten so bad, that my best bet was to just buy a new cat box. That’s a great example of how not having a cleaning routine can cost money.

Marissa photographs me before going in to the cat box zone.

And some things I had never even considering cleaning…

Like my spice rack.

Who'd have guessed? Oh that's right, probably lots of people.

And I did some good deep cleaning on things like…

My microwave.

Before.

After.

And the effect is wonderful….

The kitchen!

I’m so excited to cook!

A clean sink. The soul of the kitchen.

Actually deep cleaned the stove top last weekend, but shined it up. It gets messy in a week!

Living room, with Persephone.

And so excited to lounge.

De-furred couches.

There are still some cluttered spots down stairs that I need to take care of. Maybe next weekend or on one of the week nights!

Above the fridge. Lots of random stuff. And I have no idea what's in those cabinets.

Knitting station.

Baskets o'books and mail. Callie the cat models.
