For the most part, I was fairly decent about keeping the house picked up over the summer. It mattered to me and we usually made it happen. That doesn't mean all of the dusting and cleaning was always accomplished, but things were usually picked up. Last week Andrew even commented on how fabulous the house looked. It was awesome! I was even vacuuming the rugs every day. The weekend was fairly unscheduled, and even on Sunday the house looked presentable enough for someone to just drop by.
Of course, no one really does that anymore! And right now...thank goodness! I've worked every day this week (and I'm scheduled again tomorrow). As my "transitional week" from summer back into the working world, I have gone home every afternoon and there has been a nap. On Monday and Tuesday I had volunteer commitments that lasted a couple of hours, so my home time was strictly dinner, my nap, and just kind of "being". By yesterday, I really noticed how quickly the piles had started! Piles of mail, piles of dishes, piles of clothes, piles of many different things. I was glad I had no where to be last evening, and I was able to get something put away (after my nap of course). The dust is really starting to show, but at least I was able to make some progress! Our weekend has a few fun things, but I need to make it a priority to pick up the house!
