Free Houscleaning

Boy oh boy! It’s Monday and I’m having a hard time waking up.

I’m not offering free housecleaning, but the other day while washing dishes, I thought about getting a housecleaner. I’ve never had one before.
Then I remembered how much I used to love cleaning. When I was younger, I used to love cleaning our 4-bedroom house in Pico Rivera. When my parents and siblings would leave the house for a few hours, I made it my challenge to clean every inch of the house before they got back home. Weird for a teenager! It didn’t happen often, but I found it therapeutic.

And so instead of hiring someone to clean my small 1-bedroom apartment, I am going to give it a shot. It’s not super dirty, but it needs some detailing. I’m hoping that in doing this housecleaning myself; I will find some comfort and joy. We’ll see what happens. I can use a little ‘bright’ today.

The piece here is titled, “She Cleans House.” It is one of my earlier pieces done on paper with colored-pencils.

Now I’m off for a walk before I start my ‘free’ housecleaning. One, Two, Three, Go!

Keep it clean; keep it simple!

Have a beautiful Monday.
