So. Today will straighten the dining room bookshelves and re-hang the pictures. Maybe tidy up and repaint some scuff marks on the woodwork. Slap some paint on the one small part of the ceiling we had to put caulking on. Wash the hardwood floor and get rid of the spiders who have taken up permanent residence.
I just feel so refreshed when even one room is clean to the bone. Doesn't happen very often in our house, but when it does, it's a treat.
