Busy Little Bees

Today was a rather busy one for D and I. We woke up late (for us) at around 730am, and started the day off with a cuppa tea - green for him, regular for me - and both sat down to play a little WoW before we got stuck into the housecleaning. This didn't last too long however, as a few power surges knocked us offline and we both took that as a sign that we needed to get offline and begin the cleanfest.

And clean we did! I vacuumed the entire tile floor of the dining/family room, hallways and laundry, which took me about an hour or so, I suppose, and then I decided I would do the shower. Of course, it was so stinking hot that I was looking forward to cleaning the shower because it meant cool water, and the chance to get WET! Huzzah! So I cleaned out the entire shower, top to bottom, scrubbing down the tiles in varying positions: on my feet, on my ass, on my knees, and even squatting. Let me tell you, the workout I had was amazing. Of course I'm being facetious; my back was protesting rather painfully after having done all of that, but it was well worth it as I stood infront of the fan, and having the air blow across my wet skin.

That sounds only mildly pornographic, doesn't it? Getting wet, various positions... That should make for some interesting websearch hits. Teehee.

Anyway... While I was doing all of this, D was cleaning up the loungeroom and the nursery, vacuuming and then he was in the garage with the wooden changing table, sanding it down and readying it for repainting, as well as going through some of the boxes in the garage that haven't been unpacked yet AND prior to all of this, he rearranged the loungeroom for me and thoroughly cleaned it out. Now we both love the new look of the loungeroom since it feels so much more cozy and inviting - though we do have a lot of dead space at the moment, but that will quickly be filled as we purchase more furniture.

So after all of that, we decided we were going to do nachos for dinner, and promptly headed out to the grocery store to pick up some necessities. I should point out the psychic ability of my beloved, and the fact that we have this quirky little thing where we try and guess the dollar amount going to be spent on the groceries lined up on the conveyor belt. Let me tell you something people: he guessed the exact amount of our grocery purchase. Well... almost. He guessed $196. I guessed $175. The total grocery bill was $196.35 and it freaked not only him out, but my jaw hit the floor and the cashier was also a little bit freaked out. So, that being said, now we have to go check our lotto ticket from Saturday. Who knows, maybe we'll have won something.

It must have been a day for vacuuming and Nacho's. I did the same here.
