First, I move den furniture so the delivery people have full access to get to the cellar door. Then, I move shelves of games and sports equipment that have taken over the cellar stairs landing. After that, I clear off random shit that is halfway up/halfway down the stairs, like windshield washer fluid and folded tarps. Last, I move the old washer and the old dryer out of their spaces and clean behind them.
End result = organized chaos
A friend calls me and asks me over for drinks, and I answer, "Your timing is perfect! I just finished getting the space ready for the delivery guys!" She gives me a target time of fifteen minutes. No problem, right?

This is when I look down.
I am wearing black yoga pants and a gray tank top, or, at least, I WAS wearing these things. My clothing is coated in dust, fuzzies, and cobwebs. I look like The Creature from the Dust Lagoon. My entire midsection from boobs to knees looks like an uncleaned lint trap.
A quick change, a little spritz, and I'm off for drinks. Darn good thing the washer and dryer are coming today. Of course, if they weren't, I wouldn't look like this.
