House for Sale
Our house is finally on the market, and we finally have some pictures up! If you want complete listing information, leave a comment and I'll send it to. Big shout out to our friend Carl, who took the fab photos. Our house never looked so good!

Cleaning...it burns!
We just put our townhouse on the market (listing to be posted once we get photos up!). I have many things to say about getting a house ready to show, but today I'm thinking about cleaners.
Now, I moved into my now-husband's house on a part-time basis about four years after he'd been as a bachelor. And we'll just say that neither of us is really...an avid housekeeper. So, there was (is) plenty of cleaning to be done to get our townhouse into "show" condition. From wiping smudged windows, to scuffed doors, to the floor under the stair railing. And "regular" cleaning needs to be done more frequently, as potential buyers could come it AT ANY MOMENT.
As I've been doing most of this cleaning (while Kevin does things like build bathrooms and switch our motion-sensitive light switches back to regular ones), I've really noticed that I've been having a reaction to using all the different cleaners. I've gone green on most of the cleaners I use regularly, like laundry detergent, dish soap, and toilet bowl cleaner. But we have all of these old chemical cleaners, so to use them and do a thorough cleaning job, I've been cleaning with them. Here's a picture of all of the different cleaners I've used in the past week:
