Cleaning frenzy continues

Seldom do I follow the children around with a vaccuum cleaner to scoop up any crumbs that fall until we're having visitors. Army of Dad's father will be here sometime today and he hasn't been here in about a year and a half or so. This makes me a nervous wreck, fearing of being judged as a homemaker. Since I work at home, most people see me as someone who doesn't really work, so I want to keep a clean house for his visit. *sigh*

Anyone have a solution for dusting? And, what I mean is that when I dust my bookshelves, the dust just lands right back on the shelves. Do those Old English wipes work? Help. Pisses me off to dust and 10 seconds later, it barely looks different.

One more day till this Godforsaken cast is off.
