over an hour cleaning my sons room and I got to throw away about a box and half worth of crap (he was at his cousin’s house-woo hoo) Typically he cleans it himself but I really needed to get in there and toss stuff.
Also, I added a converter/adapter box for the TV so that I could hook up the DVD and VHS player. We still have a ton of tapes and now my boys can watch some of the classics we haven’t been able to in a while. 3 months ago

So I’m trying to focus my energy on little areas a bit at a time. REALLY cleaning once space so that all I have to do is maintain from here on out.

I tackled my linen closet. I literally, and I mean literally, have not cleaned that thing out for well over 5 years. Don’t get me wrong, sheets, towels and the like were clean just completely disorganized. So, today I vacuumed the area, sanitized it, donated some items, threw away some, put some in those vacuum bags that shrink, and labeled them. Phew! It took me about 2 hours but here’s where I ended up. I just wish I would’ve taken a before pic to compare. Next time, next time. 11 months ago

My house looks like Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome right now. UG!

This weekend I plan on getting some things done for sure. I was able to get a lot done over my spring break but I have a lot of nights where we get home late and I have no energy to clean or tell the boys to clean. It’s wash up, eat, homework, go to bed. Oye. I just need a little balance. 13 months ago

It took me 2 days and over 6 HOURS to clean my desk area and files. I also went through all of my old CDs cleaned those out too.

My desk area was SOOOOO crowded and piled and dusty as hell. There were things in here from 1999! Old hard “floppy” disks! A flash drive that was 2 inches by 1 inch big!

It was all quite an adventure and a very satisfying job that is now done. 23 months ago
