I started out using one of those nifty little blind cleaners...but it didn't work so well on the copious amounts of fly excrement, so I had to switch to the hot water and rag method. It started out clear and clean...
...but I wasn't even finished with one room when I had to empty the bucket and refill it with fresh, clean water! I couldn't believe how disgusting my blinds were! Lyle has cleaned our blinds several times since we've lived in this house...so I was surprised how filthy they were still.
Sean's bedroom blinds were by far the worst of the lot, though. At first, I was slightly confused, until I realized that unlike the rest of the windows (which have been cleaned before), Sean's blinds have never been cleaned. Um...gross? That window took me almost an hour. I also took down all the curtains and shook out all the dust (we just washed them all a few months ago). Here I am at 9:20 p.m. and just finishing up the deep cleaning for this month. It's definitely a serious list! So far, each month's selection has taken me pratically all day to complete. I'm slightly hesitant about March...but, I know I'll be pleased with the results!
