YUCK!

Remember the train wreck? I shared photos of the girls with a friend over and the room could have walked if it had feet it was so dirty.  I'm sure a new form of penicillin was in there.  Here's the room if you don't remember.

Today was the day.  I emptied the room of furniture.  Got a bucket of cleaner and water and started by wiping down the walls and baseboards.  Again, I'm sure the cure for some disease was in there, but there was no time for analysis, it was time to scrub.  The floor came next.  I'm not exactly sure what could possibly be so ground in around the entire perimeter of the room, but it was there.  An hour and a half later, I could begin wiping down the furniture and bringing it back in.

I have finished putting the room back together, but have yet to finish sorting through the many unidentifiable pieces of former toys and possibly missing toys.  There were two toy boxes in the room and one is already full of junk to be thrown away.  Needless to say, I had to stop - I was feeling faint, possibly because the funk wasn't penicillin, but rather something toxic.  Anyway, here's the room in it's glory now.  Think I can convince the girls to keep it this way?  Don't worry, I was already laughing before I got that last sentence typed....

I do have some wonderful news though!  Paige's cast was removed today.  Her wrist is a little weak, but no limitations at all and the doctor says in a few days, she should be as good as new!  Hooray!
