Spring Cleaning (Outside Edition)

Once again this Saturday has been all about Spring Cleaning, I have been working on the outside of my house more than the inside lately. I have been living in my house for 8 years now and have not been really good about keeping the necessary outside maintenance, but I am learning from my past mistakes. I am going to start keeping up with this every years (Hopefully, lol), of course safety first!
I began by trying to pressure wash my house on the dirtiest side first. It was crusted with dirt and a greenish color, uugh right. I should be embarrassed but I'm really not! I planned on doing the whole house, but what had happened was.... lol, it was harder and more time consuming then I thought, so I did about half of the one side, lmao. I need to buy some cleaner to spray on the house to sit and penetrate the dirt, so it will just melt away, so I think I will be heading to Home Depot tomorrow, so stay tune to part II of the house cleaning.
Well after trying to clean the house I moved to much easier work using my chain saw to cut down some of the branches on a tree that is near my deck and house. My mom helped me out.
After messing with the tree for about an hour, I began a little work on sprucing up my deck area. It is still a long way from being done, but here is a sneak peek.
Have y'all begun Spring Cleaning yet, what have you started doing? Leave a comment below.

Talk to y'all later
