Still Wet . . .

. . . but much less sticky!

Many moons ago, Katie got her hands on a bottle . . . a BIG bottle of pancake syrup. It was the giant warehouse club sized bottle. She playfully dumped about half of it on our living room rug before I could get it away from her. Many, many attempts at cleaning it failed, so we finally called in the professionals.

A very nice Stanley Steamer guy came Friday morning and sucked all our syrup away! (Except the syrup still in the bottle. But he locked that in the closet so we can't ever use it again . . .) He gave us some cleaning tips, just in case our children find something else to coat our world in, a big bottle of spot cleaner and left us with a still wet carpet.

It's still damp this morning, in certain spots. Mostly in the ex-really-sticky parts. But it's so nice to be able to walk across the living room without getting my feet stuck to the carpet!
