FMM - Ammendment to Wednesday's Post, Plus Ask Me (almost) Anything!

I mentioned on Wednesday's post that Jeff and I planned on deep cleaning one room a day during our self-isolation, but after we moved furniture, dusted, vacuumed, wiped down the baseboards, and mopped the floor in the the family room, we were beat and ended up taking a nap on our now-cleaner couches...we quickly decided that we'll be cleaning one room every other day.  I used muscles that haven't seen the light of day in a long time and even Jeff, who's been running consistently, was a little sore; so we took Thursday off from cleaning.  Here's our nice clean family room:

I know it looks the same but trust me, it's CLEAN.  Also, bonus Henry in this shot.

Taken the morning after we cleaned.  One of the scourges of my existence - dumb bugs that fly in to die.  We call these mosquito-eaters - is that what you guys call them?

My continual entertainment - rearranging the shelves on the sides of the fireplace.

Over the course of our move here, nearly 21 years ago, and when we packed up for the renovation, two years ago, we donated a lot of books.  I regret that now, as I like to use them for height with decorating...hence the knitting books in this shot.

Today I think we'll tackle the kitchen, which isn't bad, but the little dust collectors on the cabinet doors need to be wiped down, plus there's general deep cleaning to be done:

I blame most of the lower cabinet's dust on the two low-lying animals living in our house.

And now, the second part of this post - it's another Ask Me (almost) Anything!  I think these are always fun, so either ask away in the comments below, or if you don't comment, you can email me at 40somethingsjourney@gmail.com with your question and I'll answer it in my post next week.

Have a great weekend in isolation!
