Spring cleaning of the mind and house

In our math lesson for today, we learn that the age of your house is correlated to the amount of cleaning time it takes to make it look half decent.

That is, in a new house, you can clean for 15 minutes and it sparkles. In an old house, say one that is over 100 years old, ahem, you can go at it for hours and hardly do any good.

Although if you change the blanket on your couch that keeps the dog hair off to a light coloured one, you will see that your baby is becoming a wee bit incontinent. This will require more cleaning.

Am realizing quickly that my job outside of house cleaning requires quick thinking and new approaches this spring. Good thing the iron supplement is making me energetic and capable. You learn something new every day. And fortunately, in only about one out of seven days does someone get so agitated in speaking to you that spittle flies from their mouth into your eye.

I will now resume training with Brain Age 2, and hope it is actually making me quicker and smarter.
