drrrrrty!

okay. here the are. some of the pictures of the apartment as it was left to me. i am warning you, don't look at these unless you want to be seriously grossed out. they are sick.

notice in the above photo, the line of the floor that i had cleaned and the part on the right that had yet to be cleaned.
above is what i swept off of the bathroom. this is disturbing as it is only a tiny room that surrounds the toilet and nothing else.
above is the floor under the bathtub AFTER i had cleaned the part closest to me. before i started, the entire floor looked like the back part does.
the following are some of the aforementioned stuff from under the tub. i had to pull it out b/c if i had let it go down the drain, i am sure there would have been even more problems.

the above two pictures are my stove and the counter around my stove as i found them. no wonder it smelled so bad.and the microwave after i had started cleaning it.

i also had to do this with the toaster oven and i have yet to get to the cabinets. i started trying to clean the refrigerator tonight, but when i found the tub of sour cream that expired in march and shot out green dust and a lovely sent when i opened it, i was done. so i still have some work to do, but i will get the pictures of my apartment up soon, and you will see that it has come a long way.

sorry for this really disgusting topic. i just thought i'd let you know why when someone asked how my apartment was, i started to cry. no when someone asks, i just think about the well over 15 hours of cleaning that i've put into it.
