Today's going to be a good day. I insist. I got up at a reasonable time and I did 30 minutes on the treadmill, so I'm off to a good start. I haven't found my rhythm as far as working in other things around the 15s. I find myself delaying dailies I used to do on autopilot, saving them for when I do 15 in that room, and that is not what I meant to happen at all. I feel like I don't "get credit" for things like laundry because it's not a 15--which makes no sense. No one is keeping any kind of score. And it's way harder to hit every room in a day than I ever thought it would be. It sounded so simple on paper. But despite all that, I'm seeing improvements and generally feel good about it. Ten days left in July to keep working the wrinkles out, then I'll think about my results. Off to shower and then do my first 15. bedroom
kitchen master bathroom downstairs bathroom
office living room
entry, stairs
edit: I want to mark off the kitchen and bedroom so badly, but all I did was dailies like dishes, making the bed, and starting laundry, well, plus showering and dressing. Time consuming, necessary, and all count on some fictional scoreboard somewhere--but not 15s. I'm taking a break to recover from all this labor  and then will start real 15s. |

Sunday the 23rd Living room- Bedroom
- Kitchen
Bathroom- Entry
My 15 minutes in the living room was focused on making a dedicated space for books that aren't mine--from the library and borrowed from friends. I now have 16" allocated on the top of a bookcase and will do my best to limit these to that space. I gathered these from my bed, the bedroom floor, the desk, the living room floor, the sofa, and the top of a box! The basket that was there has been moved to the top of a cabinet. I'm happy with how it looks now; it's very pleasing to look across at a neat row of books. Makes it feel a bit like a library, which is a blissful place for me. In the bathroom I dusted and washed cabinets for a total of 18 minutes. |

Way to go goldenthreads on all you have accomplished!  I spent my first 15 in my room emptying out a hamper of clean clothes. I found two donations one for the 9:00 hour and 1 for the 10:00 hour. I spent the next 15 outside cleaning the welcome mat and sweeping the porch  |

Howdy! This looks like a method that could be helpful in my particular situation (highly scattered mess; difficulty prioritizing). Probably slightly modifying it. Rooms I'll try to do today are: Living room Emptied and put downstairs a suitcase, emptied and put away daypack, picked up the rest of the stuff in front of the TV, and swept up the dust/hair horror (hairror?) that was under all that. Entry/hallway/downstairs bathroomLibrary (we're not fancy that's just where most of the bookshelves are and where the kids do their homework.  )Dining room KitchenTo start with, I'll unload and probably reload the dishwasher. |

 PerrinJade and Welcome aboard. I just spent the next 15 emptying out my cup/dish/plate cabinet because I was having trouble fitting everything in there. Several items had to go.  I spent the 15 before that wiping down my tub and shower.

Doing great, def6!! I spent probably about 20 minutes clearing and cleaning the space that used to hold the now-broken laptop (RIP) in the library. After a tangentially-related discussion with the kids, I spent another 15 minutes running stuff to the basement and doing a quick check to make sure all the glass from the broken light bulb in the playroom was collected. Still requiring shoes down there. So much for not involving the basement, . Next space I'll work in is the downstairs bathroom. --That's one clean half-bathroom! The only things I didn't do were clean the mirror and mop.-- I also had a little extra time to sweep the cleared space in the hallway outside the bathroom. For my next trick I will start a load of laundry and spend the rest of the time folding some clean stuff. Last 15 minutes was spent clearing the dining room table, cleaning it, and then vacuuming the floor. I also did some here and there sweeping of frequently missed spots. I'm checking out for the day. This was really helpful! I probably won't be back Tuesday, but Wednesday is a definite possibility. |
