I washed the curtains today

....I didn't want this once-in-a-millenium occasion to pass unnoticed.

I also cleaned the windows, but only as high as I could reach from the ground, because if I bring the stepladder out the Bug will follow me up the steps. As it was he clung to my back like a baby gorilla while I cleaned the lower windows.

I've never felt more a part of the animal kingdom than since the Bug came into my life.

Oh and doesn't it make such a difference to have clean windows??? We did ours a week ago and I still walk into the kitchen and remark on how I can SEE out of it!

You're welcome to come do my windows next (bring the baby gorilla too!).

Congratulations on this momentous occasion. I had a similar feeling of triumph recently when cleaned out not only the pantry, but the laundry cupboards, the bathroom, and washed the windows too! Don't worry - this wasn't due to any particular housewifey skills .... just had to get the place ready for inspection as it's on the market. Ugh! I don't like having to keep it spotless all the time!

Nice work!

However if the windows are anything like our, then they probably wouldn't need cleaning any highter than about 114cm off the ground. (That's where the finger marks stop!!)

PS. Sorry about the lack of typing skills and proof reading in that last comment. I think I was having trouble reading through the finger marks on the screen !!
