We have a stucco ceiling in the den (it was already there when we bought the house). Oh my. I never realized how many webs and dusty strings of webs cling to that ceiling!! Needless to say, I put the extension on the vacuum hose and dealt with it right away. <br />Housework is boring, but necessary. -Jenncoffeeontheporchwithmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17618627688821849806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-40688387448769861212016-06-29T02:36:20.037-07:002016-06-29T02:36:20.037-07:00Thanks everyone.

The only household task I don't like is cleaning windows! Mine are in urgent need of a good wiping, but... I find excuses such as "it'll just rain again two minutes after I've finished", which is probably true!<br />Poor Tess, I hope the medication works.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-34823458069172451632016-06-28T22:06:57.518-07:002016-06-28T22:06:57.518-07:00I have been on a cleaning binge but for me it take...I have been on a cleaning binge but for me it takes so long to finish one job.<br />After it is done I do feel better.<br />I hope the tablets hel Tess.

The biggest and sometimes most expensive problem, is when the grass darts start detaching themselves and getting in the dogs ears and paws.Derek Faulknerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05140363868104172311noreply@blogger.com
