These are my cleaning goals for today:
I am going to pick-up/vacuum the rest of the house as well, but I really try to focus on a specific area and DEEP clean it each Monday. My catch-all spot in the kitchen I will try to do before naptime & my craft area/dresser probably during naps. I will update this post with after pictures once I am done.
Is there a specific problem area in your house you need to tackle? Wanna do it with me? It's much easier with two!
Update - I finished one of my projects! Hurray! I've accomplished something today (*does silly happy dance that I'm glad you can't see*). Isn't it amazing how dirty one's house can get in only a week? Growing up I always thought our house got dirty 'cause we had kids. Now that I am older and wiser (stop laughing at me!) I realize that it's not completely the kids' fault. My house is very lived in - so it gets dirty. And cleaning my house is not fun, but it is good for me. Helps me practice things like persistence, nicely dealing with interruptions, etc. Once I buckle down and get the work done, I LOVE how my house looks when it is clean. Doesn't the kitchen catch-all look so much better?

Thanks for sharing your link at Monday's Muse! It is inspiring to have things in order - I always feel better after I accomplish something like that :)
ReplyDeletethis clutter business is the story of my life! I try to de clutter one area a week as well. Sometimes I just feel as if I'm moving stuff back and forth! Nice post... thanks for sharing.
