A Clean Floor!!
So, I started this process of cleaning my place. I don’t mean pick it up, I mean clean. It all started a few weeks ago, when I had an unpleasant experience with a small creature. It was just a bug, but enough to convince me that I needed to clean up. So, I’ve moved most of my furniture (all this with a lot of help from Janelle) and vacuumed behind things. Stuff has been dusted, picked up, scrubbed, put away, taken care of, you get the idea.
Well, my kitchen floor hadn’t been cleaned in any way for a long time. I’m thinking it’d been since I move in, so that floor had about 4 years of dirt on it. Now, I have vacuumed and swept in there, but no mopping or anything. So, I needed to go buy a mop, mop bucket, and some mop juice. I got all that stuff last week and couldn’t wait to get started. So yesterday I set off to get some stuff clean. Here is what I saw when I went to start:
As you can see, I didn't do this little test in Target.
Awesome. On a related note, does anyone have a use for a 10 quart bucket?
Lucky for me, my dad left some 5-Gallon buckets here, so here is my new mop bucket:
HHHHOOOOORRRRRRRAAAAAAAYYYYY!!!!!
My floor really needed some cleaning. I did 3 rounds with soap, then a round of clean water. Then I let it dry then I vacuumed some stuff up. Then 1 more soap and 2 more clean rounds. They were all really dirty. Here is some evidence:
This was how dirty the water was after the first soap round.
This was the "clean" water. I have to do this more often.
So, that was part of what I accomplished yesterday. I also got some work done, the paying kind.
To wrap up, I will be mopping much more often, and no, I will not help you mop your dirty floor.
