Now that everyone is well and marital bliss has been restored, we decided to get the carpets cleaned on Monday. Drew was off from preschool, and I was working from home for MLK day. Now that clean carpets has anything to do with the fight for civil rights. But I was fighting grime.
So this is the first time that I have paid someone to clean our carpets. Normally in the past we have been broke and had to drag home a big monster cleaner from the grocery store that I am convinced does not clean your carpets, but grounds dirt further in. The carpets look so fresh and so clean. I had them do the couch too. Somehow I thought that when they cleaned the couch they would use some magical solution that would smell like a fresh meadow. No such luck. So I am going to have to douse it with Febreze, get my scent on and go from there. It bothers me that the smell never sticks when I use Febreze.
Until then, everyone kindly remove your shoes. I would like to savor the cleanliness for as long as possible.

I'm planning to pull up my hideous carpets this spring. There are hard wood floors underneath. I just don't know what condition they're in, and I have no money to refinish, so I dawdle.
