Adam has been working a lot lately. He had to go in an hour early yesterday, at 4:30pm, then he didn't leave work until 4:30am. It takes him about an hour to get to and from work, so in all that is a 14 hour day. I tried to wait up for him, but I just couldn't keep my eyes open. Today we woke up at around 1pm, and 10 minutes later his captain called and asked him to come in ASAP. So he just left for work again, and it is not likely he'll be home early tonight either, because tonight they are doing inventory. I'm guessing he'll get to work around 3:30 and be there until 4:30 or 5am.

I got the oven mostly clean. I had no idea ammonia smelled so much like cat pee. I was overwhelmed cleaning with it, and I had to leave the room. I've never used ammonia before. I ended up using a combination of vinegar and baking soda and some elbow grease. Then I used the new steam cleaner I got from Target. I returned the other one to Linens N Things and got a better one for the same price. It seemed to blast the grease off of the oven. I turned the oven on (as hot as it would go) and there was no smoke. So perhaps it worked.

Today I need to get out of the house. I've spent the past few days teaching and cleaning and running out to get more cleaning stuff, so today I need to take a break and do something fun. I just wish Adam was home with me!
