okay, not really but it is Monday and it is raining right now. It isn't too terribly cold out.......36º which ain't bad for the end of November in Michigan. I remember lots of years in the past that we had more than 5 inches of snow on the ground already and my back was sore from shoveling!
My back is sore.......but not from shoveling. I decided today that I couldn't stand to look at my dirty carpeting one more day, so I broke out the shampoo attachment to my vacuum (which promises to give a professional looking cleaning job) and started cleaning the carpeting in the downstairs eating area. I still need to do the family room, computer room, hallway and entry room! I should have started much earlier than I did.....what was I thinking! I also did the chair that the dog has claimed as hers in the hopes that it would look better.
It isn't dry yet so I am unable to see the end results. All I can tell you right now is that the 'dog' is plenty pissed at me! She acts as if she runs this place!
Well, I'm done! Not in done/finished.......just done because I managed to break the attachment! Spilled water everywhere......big huge mess! Not a happy camper. Today seems like Murphy's Law. Finally have the whole mess cleaned up and the carpet as dry as I can possibly get it. If hub were home he could have gotten the shop vac down from where he stores it in the rafters in the garage. I can't reach it. I can't even get the ladder off the wall to reach it. And even if I could, it is too heavy and I would either drop it on my car or my head!
First thing in the morning I will be going to the store and renting one so I can finish the job!

It was rainy here on Monday too. 36 degrees is cold to me but I do get cold easily. Plus, I'm from the humid south.
Gosh it is frustrating when the job you set out to do ends up in disarray with more work. I hope today you were able to finish up without much strife.
Take care of that back! If you were here, I would bake you a cake.

Well you get an "A" for effort
shawny sun - if I were there I would let you bake me a cake and we could have a piece of cake and chat for a while.......sounds lovely, doesn't it? Maybe some day!!!
Hugs
