Getting Ready for Fall

For some reason I'm always on to the next thing. Summer's not over and I'm already thinking of fall. To me, come September 1st it's fall and we wanted to make sure to get the fall must dos out of the way before we need them. For example our gas fireplace, It needed to be cleaned very badly, and before fall's cold weather demanded that we use it, dirty or not.

So Lee picked up some Gas fireplace cleaner,

we removed the glass,

spread the cleaner on, rubbed it in and nothing. I mean seriously nothing happened. It was just as dirty as before, it's almost as if the dirt had been burnt in, weird :)

Lee's extremely smart solution was to use a Scrunge, you know, the ceramic glass cooktop scrubbers. He spread the cleaner on the glass, gently rubbed it in, let it sit for 30 minutes and then scrubbed it with the scrunge. Although the word "scrubbed" doesn't really convey what really went on. Lee put so much elbow grease into cleaning it, he looked as if he'd run a marathon when he was done. I couldn't have been prouder if he had.

But, the results are CLEAR (pun intended) the glass is clean and no one enjoys it more then Max.

This weeks a big week for us, the house will officially be on the market by the end of the week. And assuming everything goes well we'll have a new powder room to show you. Along with some more gett'in ready for fall.
