Memorial Day

In memory of my mother who passed away when I was very young. This is a picture of her by my grandparents garden in Meadville, PA.

You're Killing Me

SO... This is the Kid Trailer I bought on Craigslist. I saved $40 bucks buying it used-it has a rip on the top and a button missing. I started using it to clean houses by bicycle this week. On Monday, I finish my job and walk out and the right tire is flat- I get it repaired. I work on Tuesday, come out and the left tire is flat- I get it repaired. I spent $38 on tires- someone is trying to break me, a weak person would have given up by now. From feelin' groovy on Monday to WTF by Wednesday.

Feelin' Groovy

I worked an estate sale all weekend for 5280 Estate Solutions. It was hard work yet very rewarding. Took home the vase of lilacs from the sale. The canary yellow vase is killing me (the picture doesn't do it justice). Thanks for everything Dawn!

Every Day is Bike To Work Day

Friday, May 21st is Bike To Work Day. But for me, it is everyday.
My new vacuum- the Dyson Motorhead
Bought a trailer off of Craigslist on Sunday- there has been too much rain in Denver this season and there is no way I am going to risk damaging my new vacuum.
The bike trailer is perfect. It holds up to 100 lbs. I will be carrying about 40 lbs.
Back pocket for all of my cleaning supplies.

Eco-Friendly Housecleaning Via Bicycle





I will be doing some eco-friendly housecleaning to pay the bills while I run my organizing business-by bicycle! The one thing I am concerned is carrying the 24 lb. compact Dyson vacuum. I need a container that is 14"x20"x12". They don't make bike baskets that big. Laundry baskets are that size- I just need to make sure it is steady.
