I just finished cleaning the carpet in my living room. By hand. Literally. With carpet cleaner, a bowl of water, and a scrubber brush.
About 200 square feet of carpeting.
First of all, *gag*. Now I feel like a dirty bird looking at all the gross dirt and stuff in the bowl and on the brush that came out of the carpet.
Second of all, *guh*. If you haven't done this before...DON'T. From now on, I'm renting one of those carpet steamers.
On the other hand, though, it looks much nicer, and I feel like I've actually accomplished something today. (nevermind that there are still dishes in the sink, the refrigerator has not been cleaned out, the bathroom has yet to be touched, I haven't dusted, and there's the pesky little problem of cleaning out my closets *ack*)
Also - no wonder I was sweating so much. I just checked the temp, and it's like 85 outside and I don't have the air on.
