So, I posted last week about the landlord's coming and about being sick. Well, we got a reprieve - yay! They couldn't come on Thursday.
They're now coming Tuesday. Did we do anything to get the house cleaned before Sunday? No. Now DH is gone for a national company meeting and I'm going to be cleaning the whole house. Yikes - but my own fault for not getting on the ball (why do I do this every time? That's the subject for another post!)
I know I can do an all nighter, or two. But my goal is to avoid it. So I've set the timer for 30 minutes and am getting to work starting with the entryway...
Here goes!

Thanks for the encouragement pegasus48! And thanks for the invite carrie7on. Here's my embarrassing truth - I don't know how to chat! I keep meaning to figure it out because I keep seeing people inviting others to chat, but...
Anyway, as an update, my sister came over, for moral support really and I spent most of the day cleaning the entryway. It took over 6 hours. And I was working pretty much straight through because my sister was there to "keep me in line." I couldn't believe it - but I realized that, although it was small size-wise, it was maybe my toughest room because of all of the mail and papers to go through. I mean, months and months and months of things. I found Christmas cards (unopened of course) for heavens sake! I also had to go through everything piece by piece because there were really important things, like tax info etc. in between the junk mail. I'm going to complete it tonight and then move onto something else. Unfortunately, I can't do much "stash and dashing" because I think they might want to look in closets etc. because we're moving out in August.
Tomorrow evening will be the 24 hour mark. I plan to reschedule DDs speech therapy and use the extra 2 hours to clean (I try never to do this, but it's an emergency) I can also come home early Tuesday to finish things up. But, realistically, I think I'm looking at an all nighter tomorrow night... I'll keep posting my progress...
