Ok, so I gotta make a list, so I can look at what I HAVE done, when it gets too overwhelming, and.. I think it'll be fun to keep track!
Day 1 - 10/18 Joined board, read for 2 hours and got crazy motivated!
Cleaned upstairs bathroom.
Time: 3hrs
Accomplished: Entire bathroom! Woot!
Trash: 2 Lg black garbage bags
Casualties (items I didn't love to get rid of, but did): Cute spongebob step stool (got ruined by water/trash), Toilet seat (eww, needs a new one! boys are icky!)
Feelings: Ugh, I needed a shower! Grossest job evah!
But wow it's sparkly! Woohoo!

takeonestepatatime.proboards80.com/index.cgi?board=pics&action=display&thread=2295Day 2 - 10/19Started in on office. Area has 3 desks, which were once used for computers, now it's just a junk storage. I miss doing crafts, and hate tripping over everything when trying to reset the router. Kid's need desks for computer/homework!
Time: 2hrs today
Accomplished: Sorted off and under 2 desks on left wall. Amazing amount of crap underneath the desks! Trash, papers, food packages, toys, you name it!
Trash: 2 1/2 Lg Black trashbags.
Casualties: some pictures I had to toss, but should have digital backups. Found a frame broken I'd like to have kept. Most everything else really was JUNK!
Pics - Coming soon!
Day - Should be 8, but is actually 3 - 10/25 I worked 5 days straight and was too exhausted to get much done, but I was browsing craigslist and found THE washer/dryer that I've dreamed of for the past yr. I could never afford it new, so finding a set used is a dream come true. I have to pick them up tomorrow, so, the laundry room is today's project.
Our washer hasn't worked since March, we've been going to the laundromat, so this room has just become a catch all for clothes. I occasionally used the dryer, but that's it. I bet half the stuff in there is either outgrown, outdated, or trashed.
So far today:
Took all hanging clothes to kids room, or hubbys closet
Started 3 bags, trash, donate, and give away (friends kids are a few sizes below mine)
Sorted the top of washer and dryer, placed in bags.
Back to the grind, be back later, probably with pics!
