Unexpected Cleaning Project

I lost my watch and a bracelet I bought yesterday. Not to worry, I found both but not after I ended up starting a cleaning project that I couldn't totally finish in one night.

Can I just say ARGH!

Actually when I had to start on that project I was using words far more colorful and a heck of a lot more vulgar than ARGH!

Today we have to mop the floor in the upstairs hallway.

Oh how I long for wall to wall carpeting..but then again...I have a passel of kitties, so that probably wouldn't be a good idea.

I just really wish there was an easier way to get this house in order. (A cheap way too) It doesn't help matters that we are a household of people that really like STUFF!
