Let's Clean Together

It’s just not happening for me.

I set the online timer for 25 minutes. I didn’t think I’d manage to clean the floor AND the tub in that time, but to my surprise, I had enough time left over to clean another bathroom sink and counter! I didn’t actually wash the floor, but I did sweep it. If I manage to keep that bathroom clean for 7 days, maybe mopping the floor once in a while won’t be such a big deal.

Today makes 6 at-home days, I think. Since Saturdays are good for cleaning, I guess it’s time to expand to another area. Elsewhere I’ve posted a picture of the rest of the room for contrast!

I’m so happy to feel that I’m making progress on some of my less glamorous goals! My desktop is still clean (though that doesn’t really count for much since I haven’t been home even 24 hours since I cleaned it), and I did my 25 minutes of housework for today (see my comment under writingchemistry’s “today’s progress” post.

So soon I’ll be off to see what progres I can make on my walking goal!

There’s a little pile of things that either need immediate attention or need to be put somewhere else, which I’ll take care of as soon as I log off 43T.

I’m going to the Broomcorn Festival (how ironic is that!), maybe pick up a broom (one of the ones that’s really too lovely to actually use as a broom!).

Then, adopting the “pick a spot & keep it clean for a week” strategy, I’ll come home & clean my desk. Baby steps for me! I’ll also have to plan on 7 at-home days, since I’ll be gone for the next week or two.
