When Amanda breaks into Dixie’s house she thinks she’s going to get a big haul of jewelry and valuables but instead she sets off a booby trap that turns on a video swirl on the tv and leaves her completely mesmerized. Dixie comes down the stairs the next morning and finds Amanda still standing in front of the tv in a trancelike state with her arms raised in front of her and a brainless expression. She begins her training for her newest slave that has fallen into her lap by first having her strip down to her thong. Then she has her do various tasks around the house such as cleaning the floor, dusting, dishes and finally cooking her breakfast. After Dixie’s breakfast is prepared she has Amanda get on all fours and be her table to eat off of and then when Dixie has finished eating she puts Amanda back into her waiting position by turning the swirl back on. Amanda stands motionless, staring at the swirl with her arms raised and a mindless dumb smile on her face. *This is a custom video and is from Dixie’s POV
After the fun of putting together a sweatshirt design for the high school trip and the drudgery of going to the market (but we were out of a LOT of things), I started in on the farm cleanup project. My Aunt traveled from Annapolis to help out. There are two rooms upstairs in my late father’s house, with a mini-room/stair landing in between. One room was relatively well kept, the other was CHAOS. He disassembled some of the furniture and set up grow lights and nursery stuff for starting flowers.* Everything that had previously been in the room; shelves, books, clothes, just got shoved back and gradually covered with a layer of potting soil, dead bugs, and dust.
Lovely, eh? Well, *cracks knuckles menacingly* Today’s the day. My son brought up a socket wrench to disassemble the remaining bits of the old bunk bed. Aunt L. and I dragged garbage out of the room and down the stairs in a steady stream. Once the room was largely empty, I started tearing up the elderly linoleum (check out those lovely seventies colors! Orange, mustard, and avocado green!). Under the linoleum was ‘underlayment’, which I was able to pull up with the help of a crowbar. By this point I had sweat running down my face in a stream and dripping off my jawline. The underlayment was held down with very small nails, all of which had to be pulled up. Dust, dead bugs, and debris were billowing through the air. The irony is that I had cleaned up very significantly in here a few years back, but of course had to leave his flower-growing stuff, because he was still trying to use it. Since that time, it had accumulated a metric ton of crud. At one point, while I was hauling a broken chair down the stairs, I dropped it on my foot. It hit my big toe with cartoonish precision, and I’m definitely going to lose that nail. It’s a horrid color right now.
We filled the dumpster just from one room, and we’ll very likely gather just as much trash tomorrow when we tackle a storage ‘trailer’ that he parked behind the house. There were so many boards just randomly nailed/screwed to the walls or the window frames. I removed enough rough lumber to build a kid’s tree fort.
I’ll try to get picture of the empty room tomorrow. The old floorboards under the linoleum are a nice, medium-width pine. I have no IDEA why anyone ever covered them over. It was my room as a kid, and it looked a lot nicer then.

So, your landlord/parents/home inspector/favorite movie star is dropping by, and your place is a disaster. You don’t have much time to clean it up. You’re in emergency mode. Let’s get started.
Don’t panic. Panic leads to fear, fear leads to procrastination, procrastination leads to the dark side. You can do this, but you have to stay calm.
Unlike maintenance cleaning, we’re not looking to completely unfuck one space at a time. Instead, we want to decrease the overall mess in stages, spread evenly across the whole area that we’re concerned about. If you think your home is at Level 10 filth, we want to bring the whole thing down to a Level 9, and then down from there. One really clean spot in an otherwise messy home is not going to be helpful here.
Get prepared. You’ll want to shut the computer down (or turn the modem off if you need your computer to play music). Trust me. Get your music going. Gather up trash bags, your vacuum and mop, some rags or paper towel, sponges, and other cleaning supplies. Use what you have on hand. Don’t get distracted running to the store and spending an hour browsing cleaning supplies. A multi-purpose cleaning concentrate or a jug of vinegar will be just fine.
Breaks are very important. Depending on your time constraints, work in 20/10s (20 minutes working, 10-minute break) or 45/15s. But take breaks because otherwise you’re marathoning, and marathon cleaning is no one’s friend. Keep hydrated, don’t forget to eat, and check in with yourself frequently to make sure you’re physically doing OK.
Make your bed. This will be your home base if you get overwhelmed or need somewhere clear to take a break.
Start with the garbage. Going from room to room, throw out anything that is obvious trash. Once you fill a bag, take it out. Repeat as many times as necessary.
Move on to dishes. Gather the dishes from all over your house and bring them to the kitchen. If you can, start them soaking in a sink of hot, soapy water or start loading the dishwasher. After the dishes are all in one place, spend one 20/10 getting started getting them under control.
Now it’s time for your flat surfaces. Countertops, tables, dresser tops, etc. Clear them off and wipe them down. Don’t get distracted in too much sorting and organizing. We’re in crisis mode here. There will be time to get in-depth once this is all done. The same applies to cabinets and closets. Unless you have reason to believe people will be opening closed doors, leave these alone for now.
Attack the floordrobe and shoe pile. Get your clothes either put away or in the hamper. Start a load of laundry if you need to, but keep in mind that laundry and dishes have three steps: wash, dry, and put it away, goddammit!
Get random stuff up off the floors. If something is trash-worthy, throw it away now rather than just move it around a bunch of times. Otherwise, put stuff where it belongs.
Take another 20/10 or 45/15 to catch up on more dishes, if needed.
Head into the bathroom. Pour some cleaner in the toilet bowl, fill the sink with hot water and cleaner, and either spray the tub and shower with cleaner, or fill the tub up with some hot water and add cleaner and let it soak. Put everything away that’s out and shouldn’t be, clean the mirror, counters, and toilet seat. Sweep or dry mop the floor. Wipe down the sink and tub/shower, and give the toilet bowl a scrub. Mop the floor.
Sweep and mop the kitchen floor.
Vacuum everything you can, and sweep everything you can’t.
Walk outside of your house (don’t lock yourself out, please). Walk back in and see what catches your eye first. Go and deal with that.
If you’re being inspected or your landlord is coming in for repairs, spend time on whatever area they’ll be focusing on.
Give the whole place one more once-over and pay attention to anything you’ve missed so far.
It’s an old trick, but if your place is a little funky-smelling, put a pan of water on the stove on low heat and add some citrus or cinnamon or vanilla. Don’t leave it unattended or forget about it.
Take a shower, put on something clean, and eat something.
You can do this. It’s overwhelming, yes, but it is not impossible. You just need to do it. You have a list. You have directions. You have a whole bunch of Internet strangers who have been there before and who are cheering you on. You can do this, but you need to get started.
Why are you still here? GO. START. NOW.
the number of times in my past that I desperately wanted/needed someone to sit me down and tell me this stuff. I will never get back the hours and hours lost to headless-chicken mode, but it’s nice to know that in the last year I’ve learned so many coping mechanisms :D
ARE YOU A WOMAN OR COUPLE IN DC, VIRGINIA, or MARYLAND.
