replaced by folger’s crystals

I have apparently been replaced by Folger’s Crystals, or something. I couldn’t stand the horrible creeping *mess* that was taking over the counter (again) and cleaned it up this morning. Then the fact that the rest of the kitchen wasn’t clean pissed me off, so I cleaned it despite knowing that Shaun would clean it when he got up. I even went so far as to collect all the dishes that had come to live upstairs. Then this evening, having made brownies earlier, I cleaned the kitchen again, then scooped the kitty litter, emptied the bathroom garbage, and vacuumed the downstairs with a vengeful eye for detail. Ted, upon seeing the counter when he came home from work, said, “It’s a Christmas miracle!” When I got done vacuuming a couple minutes ago, he wanted to know who I was and what I’d done with his wife.

Tomorrow I am going to clean our bathroom and vacuum the damned upstairs. Ted says he’ll do the stairs themselves (I can’t; it really throws my back out) when he comes home from work. I will hold him to that, most ferociously if necessary.

*stares grimly around the office desks* And don’t think you’re getting away without a cleansing, either, you little bastards.

And I’m going to work on my shelves and do laundry. *scowl* Don’t try to talk me out of it.

Things I did today that were good for me: gymmed, walked 1 mile, worked up a sweat housecleaning.
