I'm not nesting

Did a MAJOR cleaning today. Vacuumed and mopped every floor on the main floor (except my craft room, which again is one of those rooms I can't really get to enough floor to be worth vacuuming yet) and moved all the furniture to do so. No, I am not nesting, if anything I'm UN-nesting, or to be more precise, trying to get rid of every single damn ant and whatever nest they came out of. In the course of cleaning I found ants under the dog bed, in the middle of the room, crawling up walls and curtains and along window sills and generally everywhere. It took all day (and I was doing laundry while I was at it) and now I am just completely exhausted. I've told Jason he gets to bring home food tonight because there is no way I can face cooking after all that. We're getting Chinese take-out - yum!
On the bright side, other than the stairs (which I can't face without a stair attachment, speaking of which I should go and order one now) and the upstairs game room, every room we use is all nice and clean now. If I just tidied up a bit of clutter I could even take pictures of the place. I might do that later this week, but right now I am bushed.
I've also got every single cloth diaper I've bought in the washer right now. The used ones need to be stripped as they smell detergenty and I've also got a couple dozen new ones. So that's 4 dozen infant pre-folds, 2 dozen regular pre-folds and 1 dozen flat folds (to make into burp cloths). They barely fit in the washer. I'm hoping when they get water added and swell up that they don't break it. I figure a couple of washes and passes through the dryer to fluff and I'll do the last pass tomorrow and put them out on the line I hung last week to sun-bleach and they'll be all ready to go.
I also pruned my African Irises as they were looking a little scraggly this morning. So yeah, I've been busy.
