Yay for jogging disarray! creativechaos-yes, hot works well too! I went with cold then a hot shower and that really seemed to help. Cleaned off retail counter that we use for a bookshelf/entertainment center, removed last of food items to bags in the kitchen (No more livingroom pantry!) Moved a bunch of toys that are still boxed onto those shelves, the low shelves will be their home when unpacked! Emptied dishwasher Cleaned off top of dresser in bedroom (there are still some things on the bed to deal with) Unpacked two boxes Made & ate lunch Move items behind bar into office while I still have Husband (he works tonight) Get the mail Keep unpacking. |

You guys all did an amazing job today!!! Just wanted to answer creative quickly....I am not quite in maintenance, but I am working towards it....I still have closet and corners that would be considered a level 3 or 4 and some rooms that would be considered level 2 or 3 but the downstairs of the house at least is at level 1 or 2 and when I do get around to straightening every room it would be level 1. I have gotten rid of a lot and organized alot but the maintenance routine itself has so far eluded me....thats why it takes so long to get the house under control and why I slip back so quickly. But I am working on it and I have come a long way, it can be done!! A few months ago the entire house would have been considered a level 4, and some rooms even a level 5!
