Steam anyone?

This is what our kitchen looks like today.

(Yes, that is a footstool on top of a table)

What? You mean, you don't periodically shove your table and some of your living room furniture in your kitchen?

One of the services our apartment complex offers when you renew a lease is steam cleaning the carpets in your apartment. We have an appointment for today. Understandably, the cleaners are not allowed to move anything, so they only clean the carpet that's exposed (i.e. not under furniture, etc). We just want to make sure they can clean as much as possible, so our kitchen is full, our bathroom is packed, and there is nothing but big heavy furniture on the floor of our bedroom.

Is it weird that I'm really excited to see our carpets after they've been steamed? (Is that the right term?) The mister and I keep a pretty clean apartment - a little clutter now and then, but we vacuum often. However. We have lived in this apartment for two and a half years and eventually things take a toll on the floor. I can't wait to see what our floors look like when I get home tonight!

I think that's how I can tell I'm getting older. Going out at 10 PM for drinks? No thanks. Quick trip to Ikea? I'm there.

Please tell me I'm not alone. Any one else overly excited about cleaning, furniture, or even decorating? (Hellooooo shelf!)

Yes, I realize I just wrote a whole post about getting our carpets cleaned. Back to your regularly non-cleaning obsessed posts tomorrow. (And yes, you may pity me for my small kitchen).
