I want you all to know that I spent more time trying to figure out how to add photos than I did sweeping the floor. They're attached, because... because.

Not part of the BB, but definitely required: Applied steam mop after sweeping.

Sweeping the bathroom floors is in my chore list at the PTJ, so I might as well collect a BB while I’m at it. I swept the very sandy floors of the Willow Bank this morning.

I swept the kitchen. It is kind of hard to see the effect on the floor itself but I've shown a close-up before and after of one spot (the dirtiest bit, right by an external door).
