Welcome to March 2024!
The guidelines for WIT are simple:
- Do some little thing to make your house less squalorous. ☝️
- Do one more little thing.
- Do another little thing.
- Once you have 3 things done, post them here!
- Post the next 3 things you plan on doing.
- Go forth and conquer, return and post again.
- You aren't required to do the 3 things you had planned on -- just get any 3 things done and then post proudly.
Remember - if you are tired or sick or injured or depressed or overwhelmed,
or just need to break your tasks down into something manageable, you are in the right place!
If the next 15 minutes consists of:
- Looked at hopeless living room and felt like crying 😢
- Decided you could take empty pop can to kitchen
- Put away book 📚
- Picked up fast food wrappers on coffee table and put them in trash [img title="::DHOuhrZSdWDogygTivLY:: " src="::DHOuhrZSdWDogygTivLY::
. . . YOU HAVE ACHIEVED THREE-DOM !!!
You could post:
Ta-Da's
- Took pop can to kitchen
- Put away phone book
- Threw away McDonald's wrappers
Then your To-Do's:
- Bring plates and glasses to kitchen
- Put dirty socks in hamper
- Bring folded towels to linen closet and put away.
Whether you do those 3 to-do's, or something completely different, once you've gotten 3, come back and post.
Remember to take breaks and drink water. Drinking water counts as a Ta-da!
If you can notice what the person before you did, it might cheer them up to hear from you.
Go forth, have fun, and be generous to yourself with the Ta-das.
YOU DESERVE THEM!

Cleaned bathroom etc Vacuumed Hung washing x2 Went out to clean henshed at 11.45 - thinking I would get all the chores done by lunchtime but discovered there is a mite infestation. Yuk! So I have just finished hosing, scrubbing and cleaning everything in there. And I am now wet and covered in little crawlers! Yuk!
