The Aftermath
The house was a wreck before the day started, add a dozen kids and half as many adults, a BBQ, two rounds of Lemonade making/experimenting, and more; details to follow, and this is a taste of what I woke up to......
The state of the disarray in photo below didn't change much from before and after the party, but it gives a bit of an idea what state the house was in pre-event. More to follow....
As I started putting away some of the clean items; a full dishwashers worth just to start, I started realizing how poorly organized the pantry was, and for that matter much of the kitchen.
Well, I certainly didn't want to just stack more stuff onto and into shelves and drawers that weren't properly organized.....
Or for that matter properly designed....
What we have and what we don't have
As I started re-arranging things, I found several bags of sugar of various types. I think we have four different bags, opened and not of brown sugar.
However when I went into the poorly designed and organized storage closet, I realized that we didn't have any furniture polish. We had a lot of other types of cleaners and again a goodly amount of redundancy, but we did not have any cleaner for wood.
At this point, I need to take a step back and prioritize, because there was still left over projects and for that matter food from Backyard Buddies that would die or rot or add to the fruit fly infestation that was exploding due in no small part to aforementioned lemonade rallies; and I needed to shower. One of the many things that didn't get done before the party yesterday. In that regard, its a good thing Cindy's not home right now.
Priorities
- Will it die or spoil
- Will it rot and or smell
- Will it dry and cake and become impossible to clean
- Does it need to go in the trash as Monday/tomorrow is our trash day
- Everything else
