Hey cando and Pamela! Great job! Got some really bad news yesterday and I am feeling very down....turns out the house we were hoping to rent fell thru and now we are back to square one, living in a house in foreclosure that is falling apart. hardest part is finding someone who will rent to people with bad credit. It is possible for us to end up homeless because of our credit score. anyway, I think I would like to clean it up a bit since we have really let things fall into disrepair since we finally had a way out. Maybe it will make us feel a little bit better if things are just picked up. 1. downstairs bathroom 2. sweep/mop 3. laundry room4. vacuum 5. living room 6. dining room7. kitchen8. laundry 9. front hall 10. gather all laundry upstairs 11. upstairs bathroom 12. make beds 13. dishes 14. all garbage out 15. dress to shoes8, laundry....ok, brb 7, laundry room...ok, brb gather all laundry upstairs, ok, brb 7 again, dining room, ok, brb 11, kitchen, ok, might as well get to it...brb 8, dress to shoes, brb 7, gather all laundry upstairs 4, all garbage out
