Keep my home tidy

I’ve worked out the solution to tidying a home – move house!! Did so four weeks ago and I’m finding it much easier to keep a place tidy from scratch!

Kitchen is finished and looks good, also tidied the lounge and cleaned the bathroom. next week’s challenge is to sort out the dining room, which is full of junk and books.

Hmmm, I@m so rubbish – bathroom hasn’t had a thorough clean since the last entry and neither has anywhere else, until this week, when I’ve suddenly found some energy. Kitchen is clean and shiny (just need to sweep the floor once more once it’s dry) and downstairs loo is nice and clean too. More to come …

Hmm, okay, so I haven’t got very far with the kitchen so far this week …..

This has been a really tricky one,. We moved in with my then-fiancé (now husband) last August and had the job of filling his already-full small 3-bed house with the entire contents of our quite large 2-bed. It wasn’t easy and a lot of stuff is still in boxes, either around the house or in the garage. And the mess has piled up and piled up, and we both work and are too knackered by the weekend to do anything, so it’s now a filthy messy dump rather than a home.

But I’ve jsut changed my shifts at work and have a little free time so I’ve decided to use Thursday mornings to spring clean the house, a room at a time. Today was the first day of this new regime and I cleaned the bathroom from top to bottom, threw out all the empty bottles, washed the bath mats, scrubbed the manky grout and generally made it shine. Feel good for doing it! Next week – the kitchen.
