Cleaning Crazy!

I have one week until I grandmother arrives here. The state of my house would revolt her and send her running home. My family is kind of crazy when it comes to clean. My house is never clean enough for them. Yes, it's vacuumed and things are put away, but that is not good enough for them! Our house is one big construction project and yes it gets messy from that. I always make an effort (a few days beforehand) to try and get as much of our messy lives back in an order that might show my family I have house keeping skills. However, this always annoys my hubby since then he can't find anything!
Anyway, my grandmother will only be at my house for a few hours before she heads off to a hotel for one night (she can't go up and down the stairs in my house anymore, or maybe it's my cleaning....) and then my mom and I are taking her down to a cute little lake where she is renting a cottage for a few weeks. I'll move down there with her for most of her stay.
Last year she came for a whole month, but this year she has decided that a few weeks is better. My grandmother is very energetic and still takes care of herself. She is wonderful and I can't wait to have her here! We are going to sit and knit together on the dock and she asked that I bring my wheel since the last time she saw anyone use one was when she lived on a farm as a kid! It's going to be great fun as long as I get my house cleaned up first! HA HA!
