Well, I am happy with all of the cleaning I got done last week. It is so nice to have that all accomplished and get back to our normal routine. The children are ready to get back to schoolwork and so am I. We enjoy the learning time together.
I got everything on my list completed except the work I need done in the laundry room. We have decided to wait on most of that until my husband can help me some, since there is lifting of heavy boxes and those sort of tasks involved. I am about halfway through my 6th pregnancy and I don’t want to push it too far. Even some of the other work I did myself was a bit more taxing than I expected it to be on my body. It sure does feel good to be done with so much though!
The steam cleaning we did Friday on the carpets and furniture upholstery looks wonderful. I have NEVER been so pleased after a carpet cleaning. All I can say is using a Rug Doctor works wonders, and I would recommend it to anyone with similar floor needs in a heartbeat! Our vacuum cleaner has a carpet cleaning capability that we have used in the past, but this worked SO much better. It was worth every penny of the rental fee and then some.
So, we had quite a week here last week, and we got a lot done. And on top of that, our 1 year old started walking! I have a whole post dedicated to that here: https://thefullquiverhomeschoolhouse.wordpress.com/2008/03/20/look-out-world/ . Apparently I was not the only one motivated to get some things done!
