Spring Cleaning

Spring cleaning has begun, God help us all.
I started with my middle child's room. Since the floor had not been seen in quite some time and there seemed to be some questions as to whether or not a dresser still resided in the room, it needed to be first. Add in to the mix she is gone until late Wednesday night, so I have free reign....
Well, you get the idea.
I went into the room yesterday afternoon and have through the day, today. Still some word to be done, but a great deal has been done.
I could not believe the amount of trash taken out of her room! Plus the clothing she will never, ever wear again. Amazing!
But it was the beads. The beads. The blankety blank beads!! Fi and her sister had gotten into making jewelry, hemp, beads and the like. A nice hobby we had encouraged. Creativity is something we really push in this family. Anything that causes a person to think beyond the ordinary. But the beads....
There were some big ones, but it was the itty, bitty ones that stick in your feet or escape when sweeping. They were everywhere. I tried picking up most of them. Really I did. I got to the point where it was futile and I just did not give a damn anymore. Everything got swept up and dumped into the growing trash pile.
Fi does not know what I have done. I figured she will find it soon enough.
I will let her thank me later on.
After the screaming has stopped.
