We are about two weeks out from the move, so today I decided to tackle some of the bigger cleaning stuff that doesn't need to be done again before leaving so that I am not overwhelmed with stuff when moving day is upon me. If you have read any of my first posts to this blog, you will know that this place wasn't even close to a standard of cleaniness when I moved it but I refuse to leave it a mess when I leave so the cleaning has begun.
I pulled out the refrigerator and the microwave stand and cleaned behind them and on all the sides I wouldn't be able to get to once they were put back in. I vacuumed all the baseboards and walls and ceilings in the dining room part of the kitchen and all the windows and blinds. I mopped the floor behind the refridgerator and microwave stand before moving them back into position. I removed all items from the front of my refridgerator so I can take them with me.
Obviously in a house that was built almost 100 years ago, I am not going to get anything completely spotless and I am sure that any work I put into it will not only be lost on the landlord (as he is an elderly man from Poland that probably is just glad that the house still stands), or any future tenants, but I will do my best to leave it as clean as I can get it with a reasonable amount of effort.
