Feel tired and stressed and strangely lethargic today. so just want to make sure i get maintenance done....
Masterbathroom-
counter wiped down
sink wiped down, cabinet doors wiped down
toile wiped down
swept the floor
clorox wiped floor
scooped catbox
lit candle
second bathroom-
ditto to all of the above, and changed out rugs
hallway
put away clean clothes from the dryer
emptied laundry closet garbage can
vacuumed
lit candles and incense
*Bonus Non Maintenance* consoled neighbor's cat who is locked out and has come to sit on my front porch and howl because he knows i'll come out and snuggle him.
-
worked my way into the livingroom.. mom's papers intially filled 10 boxes.. i got that down to 8. now there are 6.
vacuumed the livingroom
spot treated the carpet. it looks like a strange pattern for dance steps of white cotton rags over the damp spots.
took down 2 bags of garbage, 2 stripped computers, 2 boxes of garbage and 4 empty boxes to the dumpster
started kitchen linens washing
-
playroom garbage can soaking in the bathtub. garbage cans get rank....:/
there was a flurry of coffee and tea making so yeay for yummie smells
put a new electrical plate cover on the plugin thingie that broke. not sure if that makes sense. oh well.
introduced my mancreature to the apartment so that he can't claim that he doesn't know where things are. and he's tidy so he'll put things away nicely, especially if i ask and give him a hug. it's not a fair and equal world yet but at least he's a man who will help pick up and clean. sometimes.
the more i get this place cleared out the grubbier it seems somehow. not sure how that is even possible.
-
drank coffee with my favourite man creature. showered off. took vitamins, washed faced. moisturising galore.
we put clean sheets on the bed
put away some laundry
made mini pizzas and talked before he went to army.
now looking around at an evening by myself and wondering what to do.. feeling kind of tired and bleh. mainly at the thought of cleaning up around here....
oh. also decluttered about half a box of mom's ceramics and plates and stuff. started to feel really depressed....
-
watered my plants
wiped down the sills that they are on.
sprinkled osmocote with wild fertilising glee
vacuumed the bedroom and playroom
tossed darks into dryer
cleaned the washing machine. it's amazing how much cat hair gets inside the agitator part.
i still can't find my debit card.
-
maintenance kind of went to pot. did find source for lots of free pallets for making shelves and getting things out of boxes though. so. yeay.
decided i want to focus on the livingroom like i'd meant to last week. and i'll try and intersperse that with maintenance. i spent so much time on this silly place and wouldn't spend nearly as much time if i just got it all done. bleh.
so TODO in livingroom
wash window blindsvertical and horizontal blinds soaking in tub
take steam cleaner to sliding door track/framedone
ditto for window track and framedone
windex the glassdone
wash the wallssort of done til i can get new swiffer
scrub the fireplace. it's still sooty
paint fireplace mantle
have a 3 way talk with me, the carpet, the little green machine
move liverock from dying reef in livingroom to new home in tank in bedroom. uhg. so not fun.water heating and salt mixing in aquarium things are moving to
clean goldfish tank
so. we'll see how much of that gets done. hahahahahahaha.
As an added bonus i cleaned out my purse while at the laptop. it got washed and dried and looks much nicer. put everything back in.
Extra Extra Bonus- OMG. I steam cleaned a few of the fingers on my left hand. They are seriously shiny pink and clean. Hopefully i will never repeat that it hurts like mad.
-
finished washing the walls. sort of. finished steamcleaning them. went to go over them with the swiffer. broke the swiffer. grrrrrrrr.
they are fairly clean but still sort of dodgy splotchy.
add that to the shopping list for tomorrow.
got boyfriend's music collection syncing with my itunes library now. that'll take awhile.
installed java aps on new lappy.
