Spring Cleaning of 2006
I would rather be writing about Spring Break, but this year spring is mainly about cleaning. We moved into our house the end of April last year. While it is a charming house with a great layout, I'll just say it wasn't the cleanest place ever. I am pretty sure that they didn't even paint it since they moved in, which was 1998. The walls were covered with black streaks. The entire place needed a lot of cleaning. In fact, I spent over 8 hours bleaching and scrubbing each bathroom. They had remodeled the kitchen only a year before selling it, so I was able to get that looking pretty good without an insane effort. The bad thing is that I never got around to the floors. The grout, which was supposed to be a light gray color, is BLACK in most of the house. Now, I am finally working on this monumental task. I have been spending an hour every evening on my hands and knees with bleach and a brush. Although it isn't pleasant, I began to wonder why I didn't start this before. Then, I remembered that it was just about 6 weeks from when we moved in to when I found out that I was pregnant. Some pregnant women really get into scrubbing, but I spent the whole pregnancy just hating our floors. The time has come to change that.

This blog is like a journal for me. It is also a way for my friends to keep tabs on me.
For people who don't know me, I come from a big family (3 brothers & 1 sister). We moved around a LOT, so I am not really from one particular place. I like to call Katy, Texas my home though.
Recent news, my Dad & Mother-in-Law were diagnosed with Terminal Cancer in April/May of 2005. My dad passed away 5-Dec-05 .
