OMG cleaning

So.  I've  clearly gone mad.  I've decided that before school starts on Monday, I need to straighten (not deep-clean, but not stuff-it-somewhere) the whole house.  Including such problem spots as:

 the freakin' craft room (done)
             After:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tc-QNXWug90 
Utility room (done)
            Before: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weFfbwIYchE
            After: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daf8ugavlY4
Front closet (OMG shoes! It's taking longer than the craft room, I swear.  HOW?!!??!!)  (half-done)
            Before:
The "office closet" where we keep random papers and stuff. (unstarted)
The bedroom closet aka most inefficient space evar! (unstarted)

I figured if I could finish the craft room  in around 2 hrs with Kendra's help, I can get these two and a half projects done by monday.

It sounds silly, but it's easier to get around to tackling one of these massive projects if I make a before and after video.  Sam's sure getting his money's worth from the camera, I tell you what.

On a non-cleaning note, Kendra and I have been walk/jogging around the little park.  We're getting longer runs and shorter walks every time.  If we keep it up, I'd say we're about two weeks from being able to make a full lap.  I was using that breathing tecnique where you exhale hard on a one-count and take a 3 count to inhale.  So it's "in, in, in, out!"  That made a drastic difference in a cramp in my side and my endurance and how fast I recovered while walking between runs.

Monday is the first day of weight-training class in school.  Lookin' forward to it.

Piff's sleeping on the chair in there now. He's all zen with the room clean. No more tree-monster.

Oh, not in the video. He was eating or something.

The cleaning process disturbed him. He kept trying to dig everything out of the garbage can. Onceit was all clean though, he was chillin'.
