a quick, clean change

In less than a week now Mr. and Ms. Hall will be moved into our first home. So exciting!

What's less than a little exciting is the fact that we need to be entirely out of our current apartment by noon the following day. This means that our apartment has to be clean and ready for inspection by our landlord. If he's happy we get our full deposit back. That's kind of my motivation at this point, because my deposit is looking more and more like a new bedroom set. There's my motivation. Focus: new bedroom set!

Despite having 6 other apartments in the last 8 years I have never had to make a quick, clean change like this before. It's truly been a blessing that I've overlooked.

So today is about figuring out what we need for the next week, packing the rest, and then cleaning the most that we can. My goal is to get as much cleaned today and this week, so that come next Sunday, before we do our walk-through inspection with our landlord, all I have to do is clean the floors and mirrors of the apartment. Sounds like a plan!

FYI: My favorite cleaning tools are my IKEA rubber gloves and any old toothbrush.

Focus: new bedroom set! Wish me luck!
