Spring Cleaning

Another annual event I've my heart set on: Spring Cleaning. Yep, of the whole house. I've sort of started, in that I've cleaned off my craft table upstairs in order to make the wedding invitations (haven't started yet, though). Also, last night Marty "and I" rearranged the living room furniture somewhat, creating a cozy little reading nook where I finished the library book I borrowed in early 2005 (Field Notes on the Compassionate Life). I'll return it, and I'm sure I also owe them mad $tax :P

Today we went to IKEA and got a lamp. For upstairs, as Marty snagged that one to bring down for Our New Nook. Also picked up some fitted sheets for Drew's bed, and applied (and was subsequently denied) for an IKEA credit card. Perhaps if Marty had been the main applicant... Oh well.

Now Drew and Marty are napping upstairs, and I'm drinking my coffee while I bide my time until the little one is fast asleep and I can begin making my kitchen racket. About.com has wonderful lists and schedules for spring cleaning all rooms of your house, and for once, it isn't motivation I lack, but time.
