Similarly (with a play on words), I need to clean the T@B while it is cool. Yes, I have procrastinated over the last five months BUT we have had so much inclement weather!! I could not unload the T@B because no place to put all that “stuff.” No space in my Carriage 5th-wheel trailer, nor back of KIA (still loaded), and specifically not the overloaded small storage building!! I finally dragged the very heavy mattress out… and failed to cover it with a tarp. It is water-logged and probably ruined!!

It was so discouraging to find the stains remain after several attempts to remove. The fabric was dry after the fan blowing on the area since late yesterday afternoon. What do I try next?? ~~ I’m at the computer because I can only take so much dust and mold. My breathing is difficult; I’m coughing and sneezing!! (Even with clothe covering my nose and mouth.) ~~ Granted, no one but me will know the stains are there **BUT** I want the area spotlessly clean. Repeat: What do I try next?? (Publishing this at 11:00 AM; time to go back to work in the T@B; delightful 71 degrees outside.)

Back to my question; back to the Internet (at 11:30) to find information about Thieves Essential Oils. There are numerous sites. This may be my specific answer?! (I learned about Thieves from a comment posted on Standing on my head!!)

STOP the merry-go-round, I want to get off!! Every time I return to the project, I find a new area demanding attention!! Even with the door and windows open, with plenty of ventilation, I have trouble breathing. Imagine: I was living with some–or all–of that mold in November, December and January. Soaking rains started in October and there were many days with the T@B all closed up (no ventilation). I kept comfortably warm with a small electric heater but the warmth probably spawned more mold. I have to praise God that I didn’t get deathly ill (because articles on the Internet consider mold a serious health hazard). ~~~~ (Two PM: This is sun tea, iced tea time; 79 degrees outside.)

“Uncle”!! It’s 3:55 PM and I haven’t an ounce of energy. More sun tea, iced tea time; beautiful 81 degrees outside.

Everything “under cover.”
