spring cleaning is such an anomaly!
especially if you happen to be around a Bong household, you'll get to realise it at every breathing instant of your life!
yours truly is the most authentic example! *as authentic as you want and as authentic as you can ever get*
in a Bong household, even if the lady of the house is not a self proclaimed finicky about the cleanliness drive, it doesn't mater a bit. for it doesnt change anything.at.all. zilch.
for, there will be the customary cleaning of the entire household ranging from changing the all things covering the rest of all things, to the rest of all things covered with all things, at the begining of the year : read, January. then it will be again the mandatory-no-escaping cleaning before the Bong New Year (read, sometime mid April) wich again necessarily has to be completed (with polish, et al) by the first week of April, failing which it is a harakiri.
and just in case, if, by any means, the January cleaning is postponed then for the lesser mortal-esque yours truly, it's run-for-your-lives time! two entire household turning upside down cleaning, in a span of less than 2 months! whew! and no logic (scientific or otherwise) is allowed to even moonlight the issue.
and beyond April, if you think that all the issue has been taken care of and you've got some breathing space, then lo and behold! and beware too! there is the dreaded onset of the durga pujo feel! and there is no escaping that.
so now you see, where i am going with this anomaly.
and sping cleaning is such a farce!
oh, and not to mention, the in-between cleaning campaigns, just because, "oi baksho ta onek din khule dyakha hoyeni. or tola ta poriskar hoyeni. or opor-er kagoj ta paltano hoyeni."
and all those "hoyeni" then becomes the major cause of distress. which you can't even escape!
so, september already. and three rounds of cleanliness drive already through, in a house which is just over a year old.
and the reward?
alomost 40 years worth of documented history in pictures. priceless frames!
