I knew that tomorrow starts our inspection so of course,,, the procrastinater that I am,,,, I was waiting for today and tonight to clean house right. Well since I cleaned it last week it had went all to hell and back. I got a corner of my kitchen done and my boos calls to say she is on her way to do her own inspection. 20 minutes away at that. My heart dropped and I went running through my house praying she would have a flat tire or something (not anything bad). Anyway,,, not in 20 minutes but with in 2 hours,,, I had my house spottless (to the naked eye or anyone who doesn't know my hiding places :) )

She never showed,,,, she called later on and said that she decided a phone call would be enough to get everyone off their asses and busy.

By the time I was done,,, I felt like I could not stand up straight,,, I hurt so bad and still had to take the kids trick or treating,,,, so now after a two hour walk collecting candy,,,, I am done for. I don't think my body has hurt this bad in a really really long time.

But,, my house is clean and this was the first time I have ever taken my kids trick or treating. So all in all it is now a good night,,, but still painful. Now to keep things clean at least for a week. Wish me luck!!!

Good Luck!

(* This sounds like a good business opportunity! I could start a business that does home inspections. I could just call my clients randomly for home inspections in order to get their adrenalin going. *)

Take two aspirin and pat yourself on the back! Tomorrow you can munch candy and enjoy your clean house.

Business oppertunity? LOL you will have people burning your house down,,,, no not really,,, had my boss not done that I would have been up all night so even though I am paying the price,,, I am glad she called :D

lol,,, it is tomorrow now and My back hurts so bad I can't pat myself lol,,,, it will all be good though. I started hyper focusing last night over my apartment which is very strange for me especially since I was already hurting. Now today I am wondering where I can find a cheap chiropracter lol. I never take asprin but I am today,,, hell maybe it will work lol.

October is over so I am allowing myself to change siggy and avvie,,,, what do you think? :p

Thank you,,

The actual inspection finally came today. We knew it would be this week but did not know what day. Do you know that after all that,,, the inspecter never came in my apartment. Instead I was called down and he talked to me about my job here and my plans for the future as far as my career goes. This guy is one the head people for the National Coalition against Domestic Violence. He told me that we need more dedicated people like me in the field and he looks forward to seeing me next year after my degree is complete with a raise and promotion. That was so wonderful that he said that right in front of my boss and co-worker. :D

So,,, all is well that ends well. Just wanted to give you all an update,,, I have been stressing this week for a month now and it is finally over and ended good. Now I think I am going to make it my personal goal to keep my apartment looking good. If I can make myself spend 1/2 hour to an hour a day cleaning,,,, that is all it would take now that it looks as good as it does. maybe even less. Then again,, I know me,,, and I know how hard it is to keep up with it but I am going to try my darndest to do it.

If your interested I can help you set up a daily cleaning list so you never have to go thru that again and you only clean one room a day. Cause girl!!! lol what you put yourself thru is self abuse and thats the worst kind if you didn't know already.

Hugs, kisses, congrats and best wishes.

Draven,

that is absolutely fantastic news. Praised in front of the boss?? Doesn't get much better than that plus your place is all tidy and shiny and the trick or treat was a bonus!!!

nice start to the weekend!!
