June 2nd, 2008 - FlyLady missions: living room
This week, the missions have been in the living room. I’ve quite dutifully followed them. WARNING: Monkey and AnnMee if you read this, please don’t tell our parents. We want to surprise them next weekend.
On Monday, we were supposed to clear off all the surfaces clutter. Check. I rarely have a problem with this. And I solved it even better on Tues.
Tuesday, we were supposed to do a thorough vacuuming, including under the furniture. So we (okay, Eric) moved all the furniture out of the living room and den.
We skipped vacuuming, however. Went one better. On Wed, we tore up the whole darn carpet and threw it in the garbage.
Wed’s dusting mission will be saved for after all the sanding is done since there’s no point in dusting anything this week. On the other hand, we have completed the mission for the living room. There’s nothing to dust! (Actually, this mission is usually about decorative items. that’s always easy for me to complete since we have no decorative items to dust.)
Sanding? That’s right. The floor is being completely refinished! It’s dried to a satin finish; this photo was taken shortly after the third coat was put on.
