Today is spring cleaning day here at the Raine household. I have come to the conclusion that we have a wonderfully big open house if I can just keep the clutter out. but clutter isn’t clutter if it is being used, and up till recently most of it had been. but we hve moved some stuff out and it is now time to clean. i started by taking the furniture out of the big family/great room and then pulled up the rug. It is really just a very big area rug with an unfinished wood floor under it. This is one of the rooms where we have not restored the floors, so I have temporarily lived with this ugly area rug. But today I pulled it up and scrubbed and swept under it and the guys hauled it outside and now my workers (children) are shop vac-ing it. This thing is at least 17×15 so it is not easy. I hate dirt! It is now 11:25 AM, I will keep you posted.
and .. your thoughts?
