- My housing is being inspected this week. And because I keep falling off the desqualoring wagon, my home is a wreck yet again. Am currently doing "Screaming Banshee Woman Marathon Cleaning" (as Script would call it.) Unfortunately, I know the "crisis cleaning" drill all too well. takeonestepatatime.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=7183So I know what to do. I've also hired help. Please send positive thoughts -- not just to me ... but to everyone ... to ALL people EVERYWHERE going through these crises ... so that we have the courage to plough through, and ... so that we learn to MAINTAIN so that we NEVER have to do Screaming Banshee Woman Marathon Cleaning sessions ever again. I will not be posting here for a few days. I would just get distracted posting here or being in chatroom. I know what to do. I will post again in about 4 or 5 days to update. SEE UPDATE on PAGE 3 of this thread. Love, Lioness -

Oh my. But if you know what to do you're one up. Get the coffee, enjoy your help, don' t beat yoursefl up the whole time for backsliding. Back on the old board somebody came to help you (and I'm ashamed to say I've forgotten who...I think they don't post anymore) and it got all done. This time too! Keep the cleanness of last time in mind. Good vibes from here.
Anne.

on calling in the cleaning crew now. You know exactly what to do. I'm praying it'll be the last time you'll have to bring out the Banshee....at least for cleaning. Wyo

I say crazy clean for a set number of hours, stopping to rest of course, and then take yourself and maybe your helpers out to eat. In a decent sit-down place if you can afford it. Than after you have a nice filling meal and dessert head back for another session. It will be good to get out and away and food is comforting. If you can't afford to go out have something in the crockpot bubbling away. I had to do this once. Denny's saved my brain.

Wonderful CL_SS, This for when you return after having passed your inspection!!! Well done!!!! It's funny but you are one of those from the old forum that I have ear-marked mentally as "one to listen to" and I suppose because of that it seems strange that you should be having an inspection and be doing the screaming banshee routine - I always reckon you have it sorted! It is refreshing (though not for you I am sure) that you too are humon. I do remember your last (?) inspection and you were amazing in how you got things sorted and have no doubt you will triumph again this time. Back then I didn't understand the inspection thing and I still don't. Is it peculiar to the U.S.? It is something I have only heard about on this forum and it seems to be quite common? Who inspects? Why? Is it routine or on the foot of a complaint? When it is all over and you can breath again could you explain it to me - or maybe somebody else could. My thoughts are with you over the next few days.
