I am so sorry. Hoping you find a $$ solution and that this go-around is successful.

My DH is hosting a poker night here this weekend, which I think I mentioned before. Well, last night, he mentioned that he wants to play out in our sunroom, which is like a finished year-round porch at the back of our house. Makes sense because it is away from sleeping kids, etc.... The trouble is that is is cobwebby and needs to be cleaned. Plus,the bunny cage, hamster and random toys are out there.... Sigh. How clean does a room NEED to be for men to play poker in, really?? DH will help, but has a busy week, so I want to peg away at it. The bonus is, then it will be ready to turn into a playroom area for the winter after poker night.
