Roll 1: Vacuum the dining room
Roll 2: It's funny. After I was done vacuuming, I thought maybe I should go ahead and wipe the table as well. I do kinda wish I'd done so before vacuuming. Now I have to be extra careful or re-run it. Gonna wipe that table.

Unfortunately, I won't have time to continue with this. I have one or two more things I'll do because they're priority enough.

Last weekend I had gained some momentum and I want to keep working in the areas of the main floor of my home. The main floor is easily divided into 6 sections. I will number the 6 sections and get going. Goal 10-15 minutes in each section. 1. SE corner of house (Dining/Sewing area) 2. SC section woodstove, old computer area. currently a wasted space. Not used for anything except for storing clutter. 3. SW Living Room/TV area. My banana tree lives here. 4. NW Entry another very poorly defined cluttered area not being used for any purpose except storing clutter. 5. NC Bathroom and Laundry. Both rooms are partially, but not fully functional. 6. NE Kitchen. Cluttered but fully functional. (I wish I had laid out this floorplan differently, but it is what it is. It's what you get when a 24 year-old, who doesn't know much, draws the plans.)  I rolled a 4. I'll be back in 15 minutes. I rolled a 2. See ya! I'm getting my most dreaded areas... I rolled a 1. I will be calling in to a CLA meeting after this. I switched into doing some other things in the afternoon, but may come back to this in the coming days/weeks |

Today I have asked Husband to give me a hand. So I probably won't work in here much or possibly at all.

I just wanted to pop in and say I'm glad to see people using this thread! I know we all have different schedules and can't work in it at the same time but it would be nice if we could, it's always better to have company. I've been using the dice on the work along thread occasionally, even if it's just to tell me which room to work in or how many items to put away--it somehow makes it more interesting to do the boring work!

DD wants to give DH a new bed and mattress for his birthday later this month. I also want to switch some beds between rooms. I need to remove some clutter to make room to get the old mattresses out and the new bed and mattresses in.
My goal is to work in each area for 5-10 minutes at at time. I tend to get overwhelmed when I commit to more than this. I'm just going to do what ever I roll... no gameboard method today.
1. Water house plants
2. Declutter entry
3. Declutter upstairs hallway
4. Declutter spare bedroom
5. Declutter downstairs hallway
6. Declutter spare bedroom (yes this is here twice, on purpose.)
Rolled a 2 to start.
I rolled a 2 again.
