A cleaning we will go, a cleaning we will go, Hi Ho the dario a cleaning we will go

At the end of this year I have begun the cleaning out of the house.  Four hours each night cleaning, vacuuming and beating the kids for making a mess. I have gone through mountains of laundry and there is still so much more to do.  What I have learned so far:

1. Fire extinguisher powder is a pain to vacuum
2. We have so many more clothes than we really need
3. We have twelve gloves, none of which match
4. We have virtually every sock my 8 year old wore when she was 8 months old
5. Cookie Crisp has the ability to survive an apocalyptic mess and still retain form and texture as if still in the box.
6. I have too many F***ing romance novels.  Seriously they are in every drawer, box, and bit of shelf space.  Please someone buy some from me so I have more room.
7. Netflix is awesome at late night movies to watch while you clean
8. I seriously don't remember when we bought half of the things we have in the house
9. Dysons are great until they suck up small twigs which clog the hose
10. I hate messes

So, every night I will work at it to complete this task.  Will I ever finish?  Seems unlikly when the kids keep leaving things on the floor, but now I just take those things away.  Eventually they won't have anything left to leave out.  Oh well, back to work.

Too many romance novels? Get a paperbackswap.com membership and have at it! I got rid of most of my books before discovering the site, though, so woe is me =(
