Complete "100 Days of Weight Loss"
Untitled 1 month ago

After completing the 40 Days and 40 Nights journal this summer, I was surprised to find that I had broken through my previous two-week limit. I did hit a point when I faltered, but I picked it back up again, and it was well worth the while. I’ve had a bit of a break to move into a new place, but now that I am beginning to feel more settled, I am ready for a new challenge.

If I can do 40 days, I can certainly do 100.

I’ll be blogging my way through all of it, and I’ll try to check back in every week or so to update.

New place, new motivation, new goals 1 month ago

So, I recently moved out of my old apartment and into a shared home with a friend. The moving process was rather harrowing, and I’ve vowed to never again shirk my cleaning duties. I am planning to move again after my current lease is up, and I’ll be damned if it will be as difficult as this most recent relocation!

In addition, I have a responsibility to my new roommate, given that I am living under her roof. She is neither a neat-freak nor a passive-aggressive whiner. In fact, she may be the most laid-back roomie I’ve had, to date, which may make my job a bit harder. It will be tempting to slip into being quite literally laissez-faire about cleaning.

The earlier I set up routines for this house, the more likely I will be to fall into them without a second thought.

...it doesn’t hurt that the sink was already shining when I moved in. I’ve managed to leave some dishes in there, though. As tired and distracted as I may be, I’m going to go take care of that. NOW.

I moved! 1 month ago

So, i just moved about 2 weeks ago, and the apartment cleaning thing happened before I left. It is ridiculous how many things one person can accumulate in three years time, and how much cleaning needed to be done before my move-out inspection. It was altogether frustrating, but I’m glad that I have good friends and family who were a huge help to me during this process.

That said, I’m already half-tempted to slack off on unpacking, so I have to curb that impulse before it becomes too much to handle, again. I’m going to end this goal, and work on new ones. Thanks!
