Fun

I begged, pleaded and cajoled and got my cleaning lady to come by this week to clean the house. I'm having Michael, Cindy, their daughter (maybe) and Cindy's parents for Thanksgiving. My sister and her husband are coming down from South Carolina and she's cooking dinner (with some help from her husband and me). As recounted earlier, the house was incredibly dusty. My cleaning lady (as well as a few readers) told me the dust would be around for quite some time. The house does look a lot better. Probably by the time the dust is gone, I'll have some people in to start on the kitchen.

I do have some tasks for my brother-in-law. The sailboat needs to go back on top of the entertainment center. The two fake plants need to go on top of the bookshelves. The furnace filter needs to be replaced. We need to get the felt crap to put on the bottom of the dining room chairs.

My cleaning lady says I need to get a special mop/broom (whatever) for the hardwoods. Hopefully my sister knows what she's talking about. She also cleaned my plantation shutters and left them disorderly to piss off my sister.

So, all in all, I'm close to being ready for Thanksgiving. I'm in a lot better shape than I thought I would be last week at this time.

It looks like I may have a happy Thanksgiving after all.
