Today was a mixture of work (cleaning and packing) and fun (3 episodes of Foundation). We're getting to the point of not having much choice in food but I really don't want to buy more groceries! I might have to buy some milk and fruit, though.
The house still looks in a bit of an uproar but it's nearly all done. Today we cleaned the attic, children's bathroom, laundry room, and staircases. Eric also packed up all of the shoes and other items in the coat closet. Tomorrow we'll strip all the beds, wash and change linens, and ideally get everything ready so that Tuesday can be a leisurely departure.
A friend stopped by today to get some of Eric's books, and he was telling the story of his daughter's college roommates who don't clean anything (think of a pot of sausages left on the counter for over a MONTH!). I hope it sufficiently horrified our children and makes them appreciate when I make the clean the house :)
We have renters coming (visiting professor) and I've had to exlain that yes, we really do need to empty out the entire fridge and clean all of the shelves, or yes, we really do need to scrub the toilets and dust all of the window sills.
