I must be wierd (well, we KNEW that!) but I never do "spring cleaning." I do "fall cleaning" instead.
When it starts to get warm in the spring - which isn't going to be for another two months at least here - I know we are not going to be spending very much time in the house. I have so many outside projects that need to be crammed into our short three months of summer, that I pay very little attention to the house.
But in the fall, when I know it's soon going to be bad weather and I'm going to be stuck in the house for nine months, is when I really clean everything.
"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
