Okay, so in Canada it isn't a long weekend, and I'm mostly only going to be doing the marathon part today, but I couldn't resist the alliteration. Today is marathon/crisis cleaning time! It's my last totally free day before I leave on my trip, and I need this place clean by next Saturday morning. I shall be posting my progress here and in the Accountability thread. Anyone who wants to join me is more than welcome. ~Mouse

Okay, update #1, at 09:10, about an hour and a bit in. It doesn't show yet, but I'm making progress. Ta-das: - Stripped the bed
- Put in a load of laundry (bedsheets and bedroom curtain)
- Hung the laundry outside to dry (yay for laundry lines!)
- Put another load of laundry in (I just need to start the washer)
- Pruned a plant (it was looking sad)
- Put the dead bits of plant in the compost
- Took plates and some garbage out of bedroom
- Cleared out the garbage bag from under the sink, where I'd forgotten it (Eww! Flies! And fly larvae! Eww! They are currently all dead. I kilt 'em all, 'cause eww!)
- Put the garbage outside (did I mention: eww!)
For such a long list, it sure seems as though I haven't put a dent in the place. Oh well. I shall forge on. ~Mouse

Hurray for cando! I shall go look for your update in a moment. In the meantime, there has been a bit more progress over here. - Rescued the laundry from where it blew off the line (*grr*)
- Washed another load of laundry
- Hung up second load of laundry
- Cleared out more stuff from bedroom (only a few things, but it's still something!)
- Patted the cats
- Put the cat carriers away (I took the cats to the vet nearly three weeks ago!)
- Cleared some space on the kitchen counters and put dishes in the sink

The day is flying by! I ran out of steam around noon, and took a break with an episode of CSI. Murder in a high-end restaurant! Also makes me never want to eat out ever again. Bleah. They found all sorts of horrible substances in the kitchen that were even unrelated to the murder (semen and cocaine and... bleah). Back to my ta-da list: - Cleaned the garbage can (the one with the aforementioned fly larvae: eww!)
- Tidied up a bit in the kitchen
- Cleaned out the fridge (no more science experiments!)
- Hung my (newly-washed and outdoors-y-smelling) curtains
- Took down second load of laundry
- Put in third load of laundry
- Hung up third load of laundry
- Put in fourth load of laundry
- Patted the cats
Now I have to fold my laundry (*sigh*), and get to work on the rest. ~Mouse

Oh my goodness! You're kicking butt, mouse! Where do you get the energy? It's the cat patting, isn't it?
