Overwhelming urge

I cannot shake it.
I need to clean. Not a pick-up-toys-before-bed kind of clean. Not even a mop-the-floors-because-people-are-coming kind of clean.
This is a bona fide wash-the-windows-and-wipe-the-baseboards-and-take-a-toothbrush-to-the-toilet kind of cleaning urge that has overcome me.
I am at neither end of the spectrum when it comes to my home. We are not slobs, but we aren't spotless either. We have always held onto middle ground. Somewhere around don't-look-in-the-closets.
But now I can't even walk into a room without starting some kind of cleaning or organizing project. Take that pile upstairs, vacuum under that, throw out those. I currently have 5 active projects that I have worked on today. And all I can think about is how long this is taking and how I want it done NOW! Spring cleaning has come early for us. I hope my enthusiasm lasts until I am finished.
