Dusting spree!

[ellarien]

I don't dust as often as I should, but sometimes I really get into it. Today I've been dusting everything in sight, and it does make a difference to the general look of the place. I even went to the lengths of dismantling my plate-sized arrangement of glass drops, pebbles, and candles and dusting every individual drop and pebble in it. Next: vacuuming, which I hate because it's noisy and the plug won't stay in the outlets and the vacuum cleaner doesn't pick up anything to speak of anyway. I miss my old English vacuum, the prone-cylinder kind. That was reasonably light, and I didn't have to move the whole thing with every stroke. I've never much liked upright vacuums, but that was all that was available in my price range when I went looking in Target back in 1998, so here we are.
