Cleaning therapy

Actually got to work a shift today, and they even kept me for an extra hour! :-o Oh my.

Came home and ate something, and then launched into cleaning & laundry. I wanted to wrap Christmas presents tonight, but I couldn't stand my dirty house anymore.

Cleaning house is therapeutic for me. It's a good thing, or I wouldn't be so inclined to actually do it on a regular basis. So far, I've cleaned everything but my bedroom. For some reason, that always winds up being the last frontier. I have no idea....

I started a new tradition tonight. I only allow myself the luxury of lighting candles in rooms that I've finished cleaning. It's a good motivator, 'cause one of the things I love most about a clean house is how good it smells.

Well, enough procrastinating. I've got to go conquer that final frontier. It must go back to days of my childhood... I always hated cleaning my room, mostly because I got told to clean it, which is so dumb considering that I like cleaning. I guess I'm more contrary than I am a neat freak.
