Sweet Catastrophe

I’m as close as I’ve ever been to having this apartment clean. With everyone gone, I’ve been able to really get down and clean things my way–throw out useless junk and really put things where they go. I’ve vacuumed most every little corner…now I just need to dust. Totally did that backwards, right? Ha. Well the dirty floor was just getting on my nerves. I stay barefoot unless I really need shoes–that’s just me, but since none of the apartment is carpeted, I can feel every little bit of dirt on the floor, and boy, it’s dirty =(

All of downstairs is tile and there’ve been stains since well before I moved in. They can be cleaned, it’d just take a bit of dedicated scrubbing and they’re really just all over the place. Any idea how hard it is to get motivated to clean up a complicated mess you had nothing to do with? With my free time this summer, I’ve no doubt I’ll finally break down and get some really kickass floor mops to take care of the job. I don’t think I can live with it much longer. Now that I’ve gotten so close to getting everything clean, I can’t stand that it still looks so dirty just because of these stains! I’m gonna go mommy dearest on the floor soon…Think beating the stains with wire hangers would work?
